Systemic Injection Methods for Tree Insects and Disease
If your trees and shrubs become unpleasant and unhealthy, with falling leaves, or sticky dripping all over the ground below, they will loose some of their appeal.
Symptoms: Honeydew, a dilute solution of carbohydrates, amino acids, minerals, and other substances is that sticky liquid causing all the sticky mess under your plants. It is excreted by plant-sucking insects as they gulp down large quantities of sap. Because these insects cannot use all of this fluid, they digest what they need and excrete the rest as “honeydew.” The result is a sticky substance on lawn furniture, cars, sidewalks, and anything under or around these trees. Sooty mold is a by product of this substance, that grow on plant parts and other surfaces, affected by these secretions. Also, ants are attracted to the sweet, sticky secretions and use it as a source of food. With an ordered approach, they will effectively protect honeydew producing insects from predators and parasites in order to harvest this food source.
Leaves that fall early and often can also be a symptom of insect activity in your trees. Disease problems are more often than not, the root of this particular problem. Chlorosis, some of the Anthracnose diseases, and Dutch elm disease are some of the diseases that can be responsible.
Time is of the essence when you see problems in your trees. An arborist should examine the tree and prescribe a solution, preferably before the problem gets a start in the spring.
Solutions:
We are now offering the latest in technology breakthroughs for treatment of insect and disease problems in trees. These treatments will effectively and safely inoculate your trees against these sorts of pests. One application per season protects against destructive pests on ornamental trees for the entire season. These applications, applied directly into the trunk of the trees, and have the advantage of being absorbed by the tree quickly, are “rain proof” and can be applied where aerial “spray” treatments or soil treatments may not be practical or effective, including trees growing on excessively wet, compacted, or restricted soil environments. Fertilizers can also be applied with this method.
Trees are beneficial in our neighborhoods for more than just their beauty. They provide shade and further cool our air by the transpiration of water. They provide food and shelter for birds and other wild life, conceal unsightly views, provide privacy, and filter pollutants. It is important to keep these valuable additions to our environment healthy and productive.
