Dying Hedge

alinemeers17

Hi, 

I’ve just moved in to this house and have seen that the hedge is dying. I have no knowledge of what is wrong, what to do or even what the hedge is. 

I welcome expert advice to help me find out what the hedge is, what is wrong with it and what I can do to save it. 

Thank you.

Hi.  Type in Viburnum Beetle in the search bar - quite a bit on it last year.

Looks like a box hedge suffering from a box tree caterpillar infestation. Can see one of the little blighters in the centre of the first photo.

Ah sorry!  Box - not Viburnum hedge ...
