Yes I did!

It is referenced in one of my links and someone else put up something about it too.

The problem is most trees, where the ACP is found and where there are also trees with HLB, are infected already but not showing symptoms. They can remain symptom free for years.

Yes, but unfortunately the wasp has not performed as well as researchers had hoped. Sad
