Keep up the good work, fellas! It is noticed and truly appreciated!! starstarstarstarstar 13 mins ago I had two 125 foot hemlock trees with a total of eight large trunks coming from the base of the trees removed by STS Arborist. They were amazing! I’ve never seen such team work and professionalism. They arrived on time, worked all day and clean up the area before leaving. Safety was foremost. I don’t think I could have hired a better company.

What is wrong with this tree?

Beech Leaf Disease is has been found in every county in Pennsylvania. This disease was first identified in Ohio in 2012 and is caused by a microscopic nematode that damages leaves while they are in buds over winter. Once leaves emerge in the spring, they remain damaged and will result in reduced vigor and over several seasons can result in the death of the tree. Often leaves will fall off giving the forest a very open appearance. Since this disease is fairly new, effective treatments are fairly limited. The most effective treatments can be used on individual landscape trees, but are cost prohibitive on larger scales.

This tree is located around the Greensburg area and hopefully the crew will get to see it soon!
