The Colorado State Forest Service is hanging emerald ash borer (EAB) traps along thoroughfares near the City of Boulder to track the spread of the invasive bug.
State entomologist Dan West hung several different test traps in Christensen park to figure out which one is most effective at catching EAB. The most successful trap will be used on trees on main roads leading out of the city.
"We're deploying our traps around the city of Boulder to protect municipalities that are adjacent to Boulder," said West.
