6 Point Protection Program

Your trees and shrubs represent a growing investment worth protecting. Our program of scheduled inspection and treatments help keep all of your ornamentals healthy and in top growing condition. There are hundreds of insects and diseases which can attack and infest your landscape. Our trained and licensed arborists are able to identify and control these problems before severe damage or plant loss occurs.

1. Dormant Oil

   The topical spray application of superior horticultural oil helps control overwintering eggs and immature and adult insects.

2. Early Growth

   Insect control sprays target leaf feeding insects such as tent caterpillars, leaf miners and sawfly larvae. Disease control is aimed at minimizing leaf spotting diseases such as scab and rust.

3. Mid Season

   Insect control sprays target leaf beetle larvae, aphids, Japanese beetles plus other sucking and chewing insects. Disease control is intended to extend protection against scab and powdery mildew.

4. Mature Foliage

   Spider mites and foliage feeding insects such as web worms and aphids are the targets for this foliage spray application.

5. Late Season

   As the season ends, spider mites and weevils continue to be a problem. Spruce gall also needs to be targeted.

6. Fall Deep Root Fertilization

   Healthy plants begin with healthy soils. Fertilization is just the start. Also important are adjusting soil pH and ensuring adequate organic matter is present. Our tree and shrub food is a custom blend of slow release nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, iron and micronutrients which is injected into the root zone. The benefits include improved fruit, flower and bud production, also, improved root structure for better overall health and vigor. Our slow release formula allows your trees and shrubs to be nourished for an entire year.

Our arborist will then make a program recommendation that will protect and improve the health of your landscape.
