About TreeCheck
TreeCheck is an online platform for the reporting of potential pest or disease damage to plants and trees in the wider environment. TreeCheck is for use by both professionals and members of the public.
TreeCheck is a joint venture between DAERA Forest Service Plant Health and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. TreeCheck is for use by professionals, citizen scientists and concerned members of the public.
TreeCheck should be used when a suspect pest or disease is observed in the environment; for example, forests, roadside planting, private gardens, city or park planting. Please ensure if you are accessing private land that you have sought the land owner’s permission first.
