ASIAN LONGHORNED BEETLE FOUND IN CHARLESTON COUNTY

A vigilant homeowner near Charleston found a dead beetle they thought might be an Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis, and contacted Clemson’s Department of Plant Industry (DPI). The specimen was quickly confirmed by DPI and USDA Animal Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) to be the Asian longhorned beetle.

The infestation is currently thought to be limited to the community of Hollywood, near Charleston, but ongoing surveys will determine the extent of the infestation. Infested trees must be destroyed to limit the spread of this pest. For more information on Asian longhorned beetle, including signs/symptoms and management, visithttp://www.trees.sc.gov/pubs/asianlonghornedbeetle.pdf
