    Spoke with the USDA. No ALB in Leicester yet. Current news here: http://www.aphis.usda.gov/wps/portal..._alb_worcester

    "Currently, there are 110 square miles under regulation in Worcester County, which includes all of the city of Worcester, West Boylston, Boylston, Shrewsbury and a portion of the towns of Holden and Auburn."

    I'm told they'll continue surveying, and any found host trees will be removed. They worry about spread from prior years, if people took wood from here camping or something, so it's good to be familiar with what they look like.

    Update: More extensive coverage of survey traps all around me this year. No news on spread as yet.
