Meripilus on beech

[SiW]

Consultant report states that the trees should be removed due to the presence of meripilus even though the trees currently show no signs of infection

I removed a failed Beech from its neighbour, an almost identical Beech, the failure was due to Merip and the trees were within 3M of each other, the sound tree was under considerable load, but was fine.

Intrigued, on what evidence would you condem them ?

 

Guilt by association or gut feeling?

Or just CYA, covering one's aspirations for avoiding liability.

 

A fool's errand, and a lazy conclusion.

 

Is he familiar with the process known as pruning?
