Pest and disease factsheets

Written by plant pest and disease experts, our pest and disease factsheets offer detailed information on a range of quarantine (notifiable) and non-quarantine (non-notifiable) pests and diseases.

We are aware that the plant health portal contains hundreds of PDF documents. We are currently reviewing and revising our documents to make them more accessible. If you want a particular document in an accessible format please emailĀ plantpestsrisks@defra.gov.uk

This section provides publicity material for certain pests, but does not cover all notifiable and other pests included in regulations or on the risk register.

Please see the reporting a pest and disease webpage for the most up-to-date contacts for the UK Plant Health Services.
