Tree Insect Infestation and Tree Disease

Caring for the health of trees includes regular evaluation for insect and disease. Insects can quickly and significantly damage a tree if left unchecked. A thinning canopy, small holes in the bark and discolored leaves are some of the indicators that the experienced staff at Martinez Texas Lawn Service are trained to assess and identify. We have several disease and insect control options for serious threats such as Emerald Ash Borer and other tree ailments that pose a threat to your property.

Tree Root Protection

The source of many tree problems starts underground at the root. Poor growth, girdling of roots and other pest problems can often be traced back to a tree that was incorrectly planted in the first place. Removal of soil and mulch from the trunk area and professional root collar excavation are effective processes that a Martinez Texas Lawn Service arborist can use to correct such problems. Specialized root pruning with advanced equipment is also an option for preserving optimal tree health.

Soil Assessment

Proper assessment of the soil at the roots of your trees on your property in Helotes is an environmentally sound approach to optimal tree care. Trees, shrubs and hedges are less vulnerable to damage from disease and adverse climate conditions when proper soil compaction and nutrient deficiencies are identified and rectified promptly.
