Q: Does My Tree Have Mistletoe?

Mistletoe is a plant parasite. It roots into the trees’ branches and sucks up water and raw materials from the tree. If there is enough mistletoe in a tree it can be sucked dry and die. Trees with mistletoe frequently have other problems, like wood boring insects. It is best to take care of mistletoe during the leafless season.
