State wildlife workers say they found the emerald ash borer in the City of Oak Creek on Thursday, about two miles from where the tree parasite was found in August.
The emerald ash borer was first found in Milwaukee County on August 27th in the City of Franklin.
Workers have now found the tree-killing insect in seven Wisconsin counties, including Milwaukee, Brown, Crawford, Kenosha, Ozaukee, Vernon and Washington counties.
The beetle's larvae attack ash trees and can eventually kill them by disrupting the flow of nutrients.
