What happened to this tree?
on: April 26, 2018, 08:53:26 PM
Not sure if this is the right place to post but does anyone know what does this to a tree? Looks like the bark had just come of in a lot of small pieces, scattered on the ground. Thought it was a bit strange, and the only thing I can think of is that some kind of bug have had a feast and then the bark came off?

Haven't seen anything like that before, atleast not a tree that was still standing. So got a bit curious if anyone had a interesting explanation, but it's usually quite simple I guess

Emerald Ash Borer does this type of damage to Ash trees in the US as there are no natural enemies for pest control as in Asia where they are from.
