Oak wilt is one of the most destructive tree diseases affecting properties across Pennsylvania. It spreads through root connections between trees and through sap-feeding beetles that are most active in spring. Pruning oaks during bloom season, roughly April through June, significantly increases the risk of infection.
BG Tree Care serves homeowners across Montgomery, Chester, and Delaware counties, including Pottstown, King of Prussia, West Chester, Wayne, Malvern, Paoli, and Phoenixville. Bill Gambone, our ISA Board Certified Master Arborist, has nearly 40 years of experience identifying and managing regional tree health threats including oak wilt.
If you have oak trees on your property that need pruning this spring, timing matters. An assessment from a certified arborist can help you plan work around the highest-risk window and protect your trees from this serious disease.
