FROM THE INTRODUCTION:

Hemlock woolly adelgid (HWA) is a tiny yet prolific non-native pest that has been slowly working its way through the native range of eastern hemlock since the 1950s and through the Finger Lakes region since about 2008. HWA can kill trees, but usually only after years of infestation and gradual weakening of the tree. That, and the prospect that an effective biological control (introducing other insects to feed on HWA) can be achieved, gives us hope for the future of the hemlocks.
