A few of our cedars on our condo property have begun leaking fairly large quantities of sap down the trunks. A tree trimmer recently told us it looks like we have a fungus of some sort and that it should be treated if at all possible. Is this a common problem and what action should we take?

It is difficult to tell from one photo. Conifer trees often run sap for a variety of reasons or just as a matter of course. I suggest you get a Certified Arborist out to take a look and give you a firm diagnosis. A list of Certified Arborists is available at www.pnwisa.org
