What Does Proactive Tree Trimming Achieve?

Taking care of your trees and property regularly and proactively has many advantages. Residents often wait to address their trees until there is a problem. Benefits of proactive tree care include (but are not limited to):


  1. Better light penetration.
  2. Aids in the health and vigor of surrounding lawns and landscaping.
  3. Ensures the tree itself is more structurally sound and aesthetically appealing.
  4. Minimizes hazardous conditions created by storm damage, winter damage, and dead or diseased limbs.

Plant Health Care

While many factors can contribute to growth and vitality issues in trees, insects and disease remain principal culprits. For this reason, our plant health care program has a broad spectrum of tools available to combat the wide variety of insects and diseases threatening the health of your trees.

Our Plant Heath Care Programs

Foliar Topical Sprays - A key component in the control of insects and disease. Dormant oil is utilized in the spring and fall while insecticides and miticides are utilized during the warmer months to minimize damage from insects and mites. Fungicides are generally applied during leaf expansion and are used to help control tip blight, apple scab, etc.

Micro Trunk Injections – Pressurized capsules with small portals are inserted near the base of the tree, allowing insecticide or fungicide to be released into the sap stream and distributed throughout the vascular system. Macro infusions utilizing a harness and pump allow for a higher dose of product to be injected for long-term protection.

Soil Injections - A high-pressure probe is inserted directly into the feeder root zone allowing the product to be systemically transmitted throughout the tree. Soil injections may be utilized for a variety of reasons and are particularly useful in combating insects such as the bronze birch borer, birch leaf miner, Japanese beetles, and adelgid insects.

Fertilization - Proper fertilization is essential to the health and vitality of your trees. Slow release, deep-root fertilization is accomplished with a pressurized probe inserted in a grid pattern beneath the canopy of the tree and, when appropriate, extending beyond the drip line. This method of fertilization provides the added benefit of moisture infusion and soil aeration within the root zone. Fertilization may also be provided through micro-trunk injections.
