Very concerning news.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Oak Wilt has been confirmed in Ontario!

Oak wilt is a disease caused by the fungus Bretziella fagacearum. Red oaks are particularly susceptible, resulting in tree death within a single season. Oak wilt is spread naturally through root grafts or beetles carrying fungal spores.

What you can do:
• Don't prune oak trees between April and August
• Don't move firewood
• Check oak trees for signs of oak wilt, which are:
° Dull green, brown or yellow leaves
° Cracks in the trunk
° White, grey or black fungus
° Early and sudden leaf drop
• Report suspected signs to the CFIA

If you have a healthy mature Norway Maple, following a regular pruning schedule (every 4-5 years) with proper pruning techniques can lower the risk of failure.

Bad pruning can be the cause of future failures

Don’t choose them when planting a new tree. They are an invasive species that damages local ecosystems.

Plant native trees that support ecosystem health.
