Slowing the spread of invasive species

Jack LaDuke reports on legislation introduced by U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand to help prevent the spread of invasive species. Two invasive insects, the Emerald Ash Borer and Hemlock Woolly Adelgid have been discovered this summer, for the first time within the Adirondack Park, and threaten millions of Ash and Hemlock trees. Insecticides can slow the spread of both insects, and researchers at Cornell University are trying to identify natural bio-controls, such as other insects that feed on the Emerald Ash Borer and Hemlock Woolly Adelgid.
