We have three mature horse chestnut trees on our village green and have
recently been advised that they have bleeding canker. A arboricultural
consultant has recommended the experimental injection treatment from
Holland using Allicin:

What is your opinion of this outfit?
Is this treatment scientifically founded or mere quackery?
(I am sceptical and it is very expensive per tree saved)

www.forestry.gov.uk and www.forestryresearch.gov.uk
domains are both dead in the water

RHS & National Forest both say no chemical control is available.
Who should we believe?

Anyone know of any diseased horse chestnut trees with bleeding canker
treated successfully with this in the UK and did it actually work?

Thanks for any additional information or contacts.
