Pests and diseases

At all times we must stay alert and make sure our trees show no symptoms or damage from insect attack or disease. If you notice anything affecting the health of your trees, however small, contact a World Tree advisor immediately.

Insects and diseases have been identified in different parts of the country that could attack certain parts of the trees, without causing severe damage if there is good control and management through the year. As the trees develop you will be told which products to use to prevent attacks by pests and diseases; this management is essential for keeping our trees healthy.

For more detail, see the Paulownia pest and disease guide and the Product Guide that our technical team will give you.
