A lot of tree diseases are caused by fungi.

Other disease-like symptoms are actually caused by environmental stresses and the weather.

Some tree disorders are the result of bad planting and pests, and a very few are caused by bacterial infections.

This information is provided by Benbow Brothers to help you assess the risk to your trees, and in some cases treat the disease or infection yourself, if you are in any doubt, please contact us for a free assessment of your tree health.

We try to keep this page up to date, but Arboriculture is a surprisingly fast moving science and information is sometimes out of date. This page also contains links to forestry commission information that we are not responsible for.

If you have any questions or concerns about a tree growing on your property please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be happy to examine the tree in question, usually for free and assess any risks to it and your property.
