Every fact cited
Clay County is not on South Dakota’s current EAB quarantine list, though it borders Union County to the east, which is quarantined. That proximity is worth noting — Vermillion homeowners, particularly around the University of South Dakota campus and older residential streets, have reason to stay alert even without confirmed local activity.
Frequently Asked
01
Does bordering a quarantined county put Vermillion at higher risk?
Proximity is a reasonable factor to be aware of since EAB spreads primarily through moved firewood and gradual natural spread, but Clay County itself is not currently confirmed or quarantined. Monitoring is the appropriate response, not alarm.
