Problem: Recently, your neighbor noticed signs of potential decay in the spruce tree on the
north side of your driveway(furthest west spruce) and requested an opinion from the City
Arborist. Dr. Kathy Widin and I inspected the tree and unfortunately did find that the spruce is
showing signs of decay. After visual inspection it was visible that there are wounds at the trunk
base and sawdust present indicating carpenter ants which live in decayed wood. The tree is a
potential risk to your property.
Recommendations:
I believe that it would be in your best interest to remove the tree. Please don't hesitate to call
me with any questions. You may reach me directly at(651)-775-6177.
WHEN USING PESTICIDES, OBSERVE PROPER SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND
ALWAYS FOLLOW LABEL DIRECTIONS.
