The oak pruning ban is a seasonal restriction (typically February 1 through June 30) on pruning oak trees in oak-wilt-affected regions. The ban exists because sap-feeding beetles that spread the oak wilt fungus are most active during these months and are attracted to fresh oak wounds.
The oak pruning ban window is February 1 through June 30 across most Central Texas municipalities, and Tree Scouts adheres to it on all oak work.
