An invasion of beetles is coming, and it will bring another wave of damage to the already battered Michigan Northwoods… It’s more fallout after a devastating ice storm wreaked havoc on hundreds of square miles of Northern Michigan forests nearly three weeks ago. It’s now an all-hands-on-deck situation for loggers, truckers, and mill workers to address the glut of damaged timber strewn across the impacted 10-county region before the damaging bugs arrive. Michigan forestry experts said there’s a near-certain attack of wood-munching pest insects on the way, and the expected infestation will begin in only a matter of months. The clock is already ticking.
