No hopeView attachment 310859 Trim off the dead stuff and cross fingers?
It's not a disease, like oak wilt. It's a pest infestation. Cut it down, limit it's movement.Seek out an arborist who knows about injections and stuff to cure tree diseases.
Forgive my ignorance but how do you take them down vs taking down a healthy tree? I have several to remove this fall that have been killed by the EAB. Can’t help thinking they will be more difficult/dangerous to get on the ground without getting hurt/ killed. I’ve removed healthy ash & had success with bore cutting to reduce barber chair. I imagine a good hard hat for dead falling limbs? That probably my biggest concern as I assess the trees. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.No hope
Drop it if it's the ash boring beetles.
I've cut several hundred for the neighbors.
