It was a good question. One that none of your links seem to address
since he didn't ask about planting, or mulching, nor fertilizing or
pruning..

Well, maybe pruning but very indirectly..


At any rate, if you just moved in I'd say see how it fairs next year.
Without being able to identify the problem you could easily do more harm
than good.

Might be Japanese beetle.

Leaves look like this damage wise?

Then again there is a willow leaf beetle, it seems.

Anyway, my point is ID the problem first before doing any extensive
spraying. The tree will be fine with its leaves looking like swiss
cheese. Better to leave them on than to take the leaf off. After all,
it's still a functioning leaf.

Well, unless they look like this..

Now, if you can actually see what's munching on them, let us know what
it looks like.. Pictures help if you can get a good one via digital
camera.

Can just upload it to a free host and give the URL.

imageshack.com for example.

Just my two cents.. Good luck with IDing the problem!
