My street tree is diseased, dripping sap, or infested with insects
There are a number of diseases and infestations that can attack street trees such as powdery mildew and aphids. Most street trees are selected from species or varieties with the greatest resistance to disease, however diseases and infestations can still occur. In most cases, these diseases are left to run their course and the tree is healthy enough to resist the disease or infestation, spraying is done only when absolutely essential. If you have a tree that appears diseased or infested please call community services at 846-0444 to have staff inspect the tree.
