Found dead female Ponderous Borer on our walkway in our home in Redmond. We've been camping multiple times this summer at North Twin Lake, Lava Lake, Lower Bridge on the Metolius and Cinder Hill campground at East Lake. I assume it hitched a ride with us at some point but we don't know when. I do still have the specimen if requested, wasn't sure if this counts as an invasive species in Oregon.
