Public Elm Disease Control Urged by Canadian Scientist
Burke Stannard of the Defence Research Board argues in The Financial Post that controlling Dutch Elm Disease is cheaper than neglect. Citing Urbana and Evanston, Illinois, he notes Urbana lost 95 percent of its elms and spent about two million on removals, while Evanston kept 95 percent, with annual costs around 100,000. Evanston sprayed elms yearly, inspected trees, removed infected ones within a week, and warned owners to cut infected trees within 10 days.
