The expansion became necessary after the tree-killing beetle was detected this summer in four new counties. Traps placed throughout the state to track the spread of the beetle captured its presence in DeWitt, Marion and Stark counties. Alert IDOA staff spotted the fourth infestation, in Effingham County, while traveling to Marion County to investigate the discovery there. | | | | Date Created: | 11 10 2011 | | | | Agency ID: | 1260**11 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000039228 Original UID: 19809 FIRST WORD: Illinois | |
