R X FOR HEALTHY TREES
STEP 1 and PREMIER PROGRAMS

What are the most important steps one can take for their trees & shrubs? Basic cultural practices will maximize tree health, including fertilizing, pruning, & insect/disease control. Our Step 1 and Premier programs combine essential ingredients of an effective tree & shrub care program.

STEP 1 PROGRAM - BASIC TREE & SHRUB CARE
Step 1 includes three key elements of a tree & shrub program. FERTILIZATION promotes plant vigor and increases insect/disease tolerance. HORTICULTURAL OIL controls scale & other insect pests that have over-wintered on your landscape plants. WINTER PROTECTION provides protection against "Winter-Burn" injury.

PREMIER PROGRAM - PREMIUM CARE & SAVINGS
Premier Tree & Shrub care includes the Step 1 components plus two additional Foliage Protection applications to reduce damage by aphids, mites, and other insects and provide general fungus protection. Premier level clients are also eligible for a 10% prepayment discount.

CUSTOM-TAILORED APPLICATIONS
Some tree species and certain types of shrubs are vulnerable to their own unique problems. We offer Custom-Tailored applications for these situations.

CRABAPPLES - DOGWOODS - HAWTHORNS - SYCAMORES - PINES: Two FUNGICIDE applications reduce leaf-spotting and premature leaf or needle drop.

EVERGREEN SHRUBS: A BLACK VINE WEEVIL application protects rhododendron, taxus, & other evergreens from this devastating root feeding insect.

BIRCHES - HOLLIES: The BIRCH / HOLLY Program includes 1-3 applications in spring & summer to protect against leafminer and the Bronze Birch Borer.

ELMS: Elms can receive three years' protection from Dutch elm disease with a single, fungicide injection in summer.

SPRUCES - PINES: A FUNGICIDE INJECTION controls Canker disease on Blue & Norway Spruces and Tip Blight on two-needled pines.

MOSQUITO CONTROL
Our unique mosquito control has met with rave reviews! Join our many satisfied clients who enjoy less swatting and more of their yards each summer, all without any unpleasant odor or disruption to daily activities.

PEST ALERTS
EMERALD ASH BORER
The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) is now established in northeast Ohio & presents a real threat to our ash trees. Ash trees can be protected from EAB attack with annual fall soil injection applications for season-long control the following year.

HONEY LOCUST PLANTBUGS & CALICO SCALE
Light green plantbugs cause a twisting and distortion of the foliage and when populations are severe enough to cause damage they're easy to spot! Calico scales (pictured) cause quite a bit of small branch dieback, stunted leaf formation, and a general blackening of the tree trunk. Honey Locust trees can be protected from both plantbugs & calico scale with annual fall soil injection applications, for season-long control the following year.
