Question
My trees in my front yard are dying.  I don't know what is wrong and I am a complete idiot when it comes to plants.  They suddenly dried up, the leaves went brown and when you break off a branch there is no green.  There are these HUGE ants crawling on them.  One tree, I know for sure is a Bradford Pear I am not sure what the other is.  My husband suspects that another in our back yard is dying.  What can I do??  If you need me to send you pictures I can take some.  It's dark right now or I would send them through.

Answer
With out knowing the species of the trees it is almost impossible to ID a problem. Insects and disease attack certain tree and to give a treatment I would need the type of tree. You can attach a picture to the question at the bottom. A picture of a close up of the leaves and one of the bark would help.
