Sudden oak death is ravaging oaks in the hills of Burlingame and Hillsborough. Dead oak removal is expensive and decreases privacy and beauty. However, sudden oak death is completely treatable & preventable with a non-controversial spray.
Last year, the Burlingame Hills Improvement Association started an oak tree spraying program. It provides a discount rate of $25/oak that is 30-40 percent off the regular rate. In addition, there is no charge for small oaks and the standard $125 minimum fee is waived.
You even get a choice of arborists. Last year, as a result of this program, more than 650 oaks were sprayed. The program has been profiled in front page articles in the Examiner and Chronicle.
