Of all the available treatments, root injection with Arbotect 20-S is showing the most promise, but is not a cure and would still need to be done yearly to prolong the life of the tree. It's a process where you drill into the root flare of the tree and set up tubing around the circumference and pump the chemical into the roots. Arbotect 20-s is available for consumer purchase in CT. It's $550.00 per gallon.

Thanks I may hit you up. I've been a carpenter/cabinet maker for 45 years but always good to get another perspective.

I'll do the furniture but will be checking out milling options.

Our beech has beach leaf disease. This tree is one of the reasons we bought this lot 30 yrs ago. It's now roughly 50' tall with a 50' canopy and shades most of the front yard. The arborist wants to do a root flare injection for $900. But everything I read says spending hundreds a year will only prolong the inevitable. So we'll probably have to have it cut down.

I was 9 that year. We lived in Marcellus just outside of Syracuse. Our house was up on a hill outside of town and it took a few days before the plows showed up. When they finally got to our road there were guys with snow shoes poking r-bar into the snow ahead of the plows looking for cars. My father had to get a neighbor with a backhoe to dig out the drifts in our driveway. I was too young to think it wasn’t just normal winter.
