Our Tree & Shrub Care Program

Insect & Mite Control

There are thousands of pests that can feed on trees and shrubs in an ornamental landscape, including Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), aphids, Japanese Beetles, spider mites, scale insects, bagworms, caterpillars, webworms, and more. Our tree experts know how to identify which specific insects and mites are active or could be potential problems for your plants, and will build a custom program to target them at key times during the year. This may be accomplished by spray applications, soil injections, and cultural recommendations for your landscape.

Tree Injection

When necessary, we provide direct tree injections for certain pest, disease, and nutritional issues your trees face on your property. By utilizing specialized devices, our tree service technicians can insure that materials are safely, effectively, and quickly delivered to a tree’s vascular system. This method is preferred, in some cases, but also provides an alternative treatment option if site conditions prohibit spraying.

Plant Nutrition

We offer a variety of plant nutrition solutions for trees, shrubs, groundcover, and other landscape plants. Some of these applications may be advisable to include in an annual program as they deliver nutrients for plants by either granular applications or by liquid-injections. Fertilizing your landscape replenishes missing plant foods in the soil, allowing your trees and shrubs to look healthier and to better handle the stresses of insects, diseases, mites, and environmental impacts.

Tree and Shrub Disease Control

Tree and Shrub Disease Control

Proper timing and materials are important to managing tree diseases in ornamental landscapes. Our staff will identify disease considerations in your landscape and create a treatment plan that is best for preventing and managing specific diseases on your plants. This may be accomplished by spray applications and cultural recommendations for your landscape. It is important to manage fungal diseases on plants as they will inhibit healthy growth and photosynthesis, which is essential for plant health. In some cases, they can drastically harm and cause a decline in tree and shrub health, leading to plant fatality.

If you suspect disease issues are on your trees or shrubs, please contact us so we can have one of our tree experts identify the specific problem and develop a solution that includes the best tree and shrub disease control methods for your plants.
