The Library Presents Tree Troubles: Factors of Tree Decline & Spongy Moth Management


Julie Hill, Horticulture Outreach Specialist at the UW Extension office, is giving a presentation at the Irvin L. Young Memorial Library about the variety of factors contributing to the declining health of trees in our landscape, in particular the oaks. In addition, spongy moths have become a well-known pest in the past couple years. Join us to learn about the stressors facing oak trees, how to promote healthy trees, and options for managing spongy moths in your yard. The presentation is in the library’s community room on Tuesday, May 7 at 5:30 p.m.

There is no cost or registration to attend. The library is located at 431 W. Center Street in Whitewater. Contact the library at 262-473-0530 with questions.
