What about private trees?
- Do nothing – wait for your Ash to die
- Plant a replacement tree & wait for Ash to die
- Remove Ash & plant a replacement tree
- Treat Ash using recommended strategies
SLIDE 69
Plan for Your Ash
- Determine if Ash is worth treating
– Is tree healthy? – How long will you be in your home? – Does tree have sentimental or functional value? – Are removal costs extensive? – Are you committed to ongoing treatment?
