Late winter dormant-season pruning is standard for most Brandon shade trees. Oaks should be pruned outside the April–July window. Given DANR’s confirmed EAB finding in Brandon, ash pruning is best combined with a health assessment rather than treated as routine trimming alone.

Frequently Asked
01

Should I combine a routine pruning visit with an EAB check in Brandon?

Yes — given confirmed local EAB activity, it's an efficient way to catch early symptoms while an arborist is already assessing the tree.
