  • What is the Emerald Ash Borer?

    The emerald ash borer is an invasive species of beetle that is decimating the ash tree population in Ontario. It is a green beetle about the size of a nickel which lays its eggs in the top of ash trees. The larvae, which look like small grubs, chew their way around the cambium layer of the tree, just inside the bark. This cuts off the circulation of the sap flowing up the tree, and eventually kills the ash tree. Signs of infestation are small ‘D’ shaped exit holes that the larvae make when they come out of the bark, often accompanied by light coloured patches on the bark which are the result of small animals scraping at the bark in attempts to feed on the larvae. Ash trees can be treated with Treeazin, a natural pesticide that limits the beetles effect on the trees, if the treatment is applied before the beetle infests a tree. Unfortunately, once the beetle has established itself in a tree, very few trees are able to survive the infestation. If you see signs of a heavy infestation in your ash tree, your best option is to remove the tree before it dies completely. Once the ash trees completely die from emerald ash borer infestation, they are quite brittle, and in many cases are more hazardous to remove. It is always more safe and more affordable to remove the tree sooner than later, as the tree becomes more dangerous to remove the longer it stands dead. 

  • What is Oak Wilt?

    Oak Wilt is a vascular disease that effects most oak trees, and has been found in Ontario as of 2023. 

     It is usually deadly for oak trees. To avoid spreading the disease, oak trees should only be pruned in the winter months, when the airborne spores of oak wilt will not infect your trees. For a full picture of oak wilt and the hazard it poses for your trees, you can refer to Canada's Invasive Species Centre here: 


    https://www.invasivespeciescentre.ca/invasive-species/meet-the-species/invasive-pathogens/oak-wilt/

  • Do I need a permit to remove my tree?

    It is best to check your local bylaws for their tree removal permit bylaw. In our main areas of service, the only city that requires tree removal permits is the City of Peterborough. In Peterborough, a tree removal permit is requirred to remove any tree measuring 7.5 cm diamter at 1.37m above grade. CBL TREE is a licensed tree service provider with the city of Peterborough, and handles the complete tree permit process, which typically only takes 1 week, from start of process to issuance of permit. The cost for a tree permit for the removal of up to 5 trees is $65.00.

ABOUT

Joe and his team were simply amazing.
The night of the derecho storm I called them as we had many large trees down and others threatening to land on our cabin. They arrived at 6:30am (when they said they would) and stayed until 7:00pm making sure the property was cleared and safe from further damage.

What really impressed me was how professional and detailed they were. They communicated exactly what needed to be done, and they just made it happen. They had all the right tools including a crane, tree transporter and large chipper which made for an very efficient and safe removal. After 15 minutes it was clear these guys were masters of their craft and it was obvious we were in good hands.  It was a pleasure doing business with them.
In all areas, they exceeded expectations.
