“But if it gets down to minus 30, and minus 30 used to be very common in the northern part of the state, you’d expect about 90% of emerald ash borers to die.”

His attention was drawn to the borer, now dimly illuminated by its portable light, which had been secured to the door.

He started slowly around the borer, found a long narrow door slightly ajar, and stepped inside.
