Can I still plant oak trees given oak processionary moth infestations?

Yes, there is no reason why oak trees should not continue to be planted. However, as a precaution, we suggest that anyone planning large-scale plantings in the London area, especially where there is public access, should be aware of the possibility that OPM could spread and pose a risk to human health.
