Your landscaping plays a prominent role in the curb appeal of your home or business. Trees that look dead or in poor health detract from that appeal. Not only are they unpleasant, but they could cause damage throughout your property or neighbourhood if left untreated.
Tree health plays a vital role in keeping your lawn beautiful. If left untreated, insects and diseases can quickly turn your tree from a beautiful oasis into a dead, rotting liability. By having your tree service keep an eye on your trees, you can detect issues early and resolve the problem before it escalates.
Mornington Tree Services arborists are well versed in the local pests and tree diseases. Our trained professionals understand the difference between the harmless insects living in your yard, and a true tree pest.
A correct pest and disease diagnosis of your tree problem is more than just a glance at the tree. We first identify the plant and look for any abnormalities that may be present. Next, we examine the trunk of the tree and the branches, looking for signs of decay or holes in the bark that insects can crawl into to destroy the tree. We check the roots for any signs that the diseases have reached that far. We examine the leaves for thinning canopies and differences in appearance, and the landscaping around the tree to determine the problem and the best course of action.
Mornington Tree Services has a variety of methods for solving your tree pest and disease problems. After our diagnosis, we can put a plan into action to rid your lawn of the pest or disease that was found.
Many tree diseases are caused by unhealthy fungi that get into the tree system. Fungicides are used to rid the tree of unwanted fungus. The tree may be sprayed, or the fungicide may be injected into the tree itself or the surrounding soil.
When unwanted insects are found, there are a variety of insecticides that can be used to get rid of the infestation. These are often sprayed directly onto the tree, killing the insects.
