Insects pests can be harmful to trees and shrubs

During spring, pests that have been overwintering in trees and shrubs become active. Some defoliating insects will be hatching soon. Additionally, tiny scale, aphid and mite insects will become active with populations quickly growing to harmful levels. We can provide effective treatments to minimize damage and help prevent a full-blown infestation.
