Printed by Press-Herald Publications 9DUTCH ELM DISEASE
To reduce the risk of Dutch elm disease (DED), pruning of elm trees is prohibited throughout
Saskatchewan each year from April 1 until August 31. Fresh cuts from pruning can attract the
beetles that spread the disease, increasing the chance of an infection. The annual pruning ban
is in effect during the time of year when elm bark beetles are most active.
Pruning is an important part of regular elm tree care and is encouraged, before and after the
annual ban period. Proper pruning helps keep trees healthy and better able to resist disease.
The removal of dead and dying elm wood through pruning also helps to reduce beetles breeding
habitat and control the beetle population. Timely and proper disposal of the pruned wood is also
essential to keep DED from spreading. Throughout the year, including the ban period, prompt
removal of infected elms is critical to effective disease management.
Provincial regulations also require commercial pruners of elm trees to have taken a recognized
training program or be under the supervision of someone who has. Improper pruning techniques
can contribute to the spread of many tree diseases, including DED. Contact your local municipality
if you think you may have a DED infestation.
Dog Licences
The Town of Unity requires that all dog owners must ob-
tain a yearly licence for their dogs. These licences expire
2020-2021 Saskatchewan Lotteries on December 31st of each year. Failure to obtain a valid
dog licence could result in fines. These licences can be
