Tree Insect and Disease Control...
We base our plant health care programs on the theory of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). Trained individuals will inspect your plants and only treat those plants where there is a need for treatment. This is a big change from past practices where technician simply sprayed all the trees & shrubs, whether they needed it or not. IPM is environmentally friendly and strongly recommended by most agricultural universities.
Mention insect and disease management and most people think of spraying. Spraying is a part of managing ornamental tree and shrub insects & diseases, however, with an IPM program, many other things are considered when looking at the whole plant. Proper fertilization, watering practices, proper pruning and mulching all contribute to keeping a plant healthy.
Plus the items already mentioned, there are many other tools to treat insect & diseases. When necessary, we can treat with injections either into the soil or the trunk. Injections eliminate spray drift, which may be a concern in some areas. Injections also provide better coverage, since the tree's circulatory system carries the materials to all the living parts of the plant.
