Proper Ash Tree Pruning | Bloomington, IL 🌳
Proper pruning keeps ash trees safe, healthy, and structurally sound, especially with Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) present in Illinois.
Best Time to Prune The ideal time is late winter through early spring while the tree is dormant. Dormant pruning:
• Reduces stress
• Limits insect activity
• Encourages strong spring growth
⚠️ Dead or hazardous limbs can be removed anytime to protect people and property.
How Ash Trees Should Be Pruned Correct pruning is about tree health and risk reduction, not just cutting branches:
• Remove dead, dying, or diseased limbs.
• Improve structure and weight balance
• Maintain safe clearance from homes and power lines
• Use proper cuts to prevent decay and failure
Improper pruning can weaken ash trees and increase storm damage risk.
