Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ash Dieback?
Ash Dieback, also known as Chalara dieback, is a fungal disease that affects ash trees. It causes leaf loss, crown dieback, and bark lesions. If left untreated, it can lead to the death of the tree, posing safety risks and damaging ecosystems.
How can I tell if my ash trees are affected by Ash Dieback?
Signs of Ash Dieback include dark patches on leaves, dying tops of trees (crown dieback), and lesions on the bark that can develop into diamond-shaped fissures. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to get a professional assessment.
What should I do if I suspect my trees have Ash Dieback?
If you suspect Ash Dieback, contact professional arborists like us at Greenway Tree Care. We can provide a thorough assessment and confirm whether your trees are affected. Early detection is crucial for managing the disease effectively.
Can Ash Dieback be treated?

Our services include sanitation pruning to remove infected material, improving tree vitality through appropriate care, and, if necessary, safely removing severely affected or dead trees to prevent further spread.
Is it necessary to remove infected trees?

However, each case is evaluated individually, and we aim to preserve trees whenever possible. Our team can advise on the best course of action based on the condition of your trees and the surrounding environment.
How does Greenway Tree Care handle the disposal of infected trees?
We follow strict biosecurity measures to prevent the spread of the disease when disposing of infected trees. Infected material is carefully handled and often destroyed on-site to avoid contaminating other areas.
How can I prevent Ash Dieback from spreading to my other trees?

Our team can provide guidance and services to help keep your trees healthy and resilient.
