Just as there have been many technological innovations and advances in medicine and agriculture, tree care has also seen a number of exciting improvements. Gone are the days of dousing a whole tree or grove with a cloud of fine airborne mist and hoping for the best. These practices were both wasteful and harmful, using a lot of fungicides and other chemical substances and spreading them all over the area where they could harm children, pets as well as beneficial insects and other creatures. Today we have the equivalent of an IV for trees.
Our trained arborists will treat a tree far more effectively with a small hole drilled into the trunk. A metal tube is inserted. Necessary treatments are injected directly into the xylem of the trees using a pressure pump. This process is extremely effective. It gets the treatment substance directly to the places where the tree needs them without blowing it all over the yard. Its rather like the way sugar maples are tapped for sap. Except, in this case, we inject small amounts of chemical treatment into the tree‘s circulatory system. This is a particularly effective method for treating many fungal diseases affecting trees. Our trained arborists are able to diagnose the ailment and determine how often the affected tree will require attention.
Tree fertilizers have come a long way too. We now have fertilizers that help trees produce more chlorophyll and ….. Rather than grow tall limbs that not only look scraggly but also interfere with overhead wires and utility cables, trees can be encouraged to grow thicker and denser foliage for a lush, attractive appearance. In urban and suburban settings where space is an issue, such methods are particularly beneficial in promoting healthy and effective tree growth…A healthy tree is usually a beautiful tree.
