🔥 A quick reminder that a few moments of distraction is all it takes for a fire to get out of control. Never leave a campfire, burn pile, or outdoor grill unattended. Protect our communities and natural beauty. #PreventWildfiresMS #MSforestry #OnlyYou

Watch for signs and symptoms of an Emerald Ash Borer #EAB infestation. Early detection can be difficult because it may take up to 3 years for an ash tree to show signs of decline or mortality. #SaveOurAshes #MSforestry
