Why should I treat for insects?
How can I tell if my tree needs to be treated for insects or disease?
Trees may be damaged in different ways by different types of insects or diseases and often can be identified through discoloration, drooping, wilting, leaf spots, honeydew, or general lack of vitality in the affected plant. It is important to have a certified Arborist inspect the tree and identify the cause of the damage to be able to advise on the best treatment to manage your tree’s specific issues. Schedule a quote to consult with one of our arborists to determine the best tree care options for your property.
Why should I fertilize?
Fertilization is the most beneficial service you can provide to your trees and shrubs.
Why fertilize your trees? Healthy trees resist:
- Drought
- Severe weather
- Insect attacks
- Disease
- Urban stress
Healthy trees and shrubs will provide you with many years of beauty and enjoyment.
Methods
We offer spring and fall fertilization as well as organic bio-stimulants. Depending on the type of plant and what time of the year it is, we will determine the most suitable fertilizer to give your trees and shrubs a boost.
Soil injection is directly injecting fertilizer into the root zone utilizing a probe. This helps break up compacted soils and provides nutrients directly within the root zone profile, bypassing the competitive roots of grass. The products used are dependent upon the specific requirements of the trees and will consist of a full spectrum of macro and/or micro nutrients.
Direct injection optimizes all materials used by directly injecting the product into the vascular system of the tree, much like an “I.V.” for medication. By injecting directly into the vascular system, there is no waste and the tree utilizes 100% of the product. This application is utilized for specific nutrient deficiencies.
When to fertilize?
Our fertilization programs run in spring and fall, while organic bio-stimulants can be applied any time except during winter months.
