Two additional huanglongbing-positive trees have been confirmed in a residential backyard in the San Gabriel region of Los Angeles County. The finds, which bring the total number of HLB-positive trees in California to 30, were found on a property that had infected trees previously confirmed and removed. At this time, the California Department of Food and Agriculture is working with the property owner to have the trees removed. The finds are a result of ongoing intensive HLB surveys being done in the area.
