| View as a webpage / ShareMaine Forest ServiceMaine’s New Interactive Map for Invasive Forest PestsThe Maine Forest Service has launched a new interactive map to help people see which forest pests have been detected in their communities.The Invasive Species Dashboard displays detections of several major forest insect and disease species at the town level, providing a quick way to check what is present in an area. Whether you are a landowner, arborist, municipal official, or simply interested in the health of Maine’s forests, the map provides an accessible starting point for understanding local risks.The dashboard is updated regularly by Forest Health and Monitoring staff as new detections are confirmed, ensuring that the information remains current and more relevant than static distribution maps. Users can click on individual towns to view the year a species was first detected and are encouraged to contribute their own observations of these species in new towns by filling out the online reporting form.Explore the dashboard by visiting maine.gov/forestpestsFor more information on individual pests, including identification, impacts, and management options, visit the Maine Forest Service Forest Health and Monitoring website.Visit the DashboardMaine State Government is an equal opportunity provider and employer.
