Air pollution injury in trees and shrubs
Adapted from a report by Tom Smiley, PhD
Air pollution can injure trees and shrubs, sometimes even when pollution levels are below the threshold for public health warnings. Ozone and sulfur dioxide are two of the most common air pollutants that build up enough to injure leaves and needles.
Safety Above All Else
Dedication to job site safety
by Chris Sprague, Regional Safety Manager
When a Bartlett Arborist Representative visits a property to assess tree care needs, they also identify potential safety items and, upon returning to the office, compile a Site Specific Risk Assessment. The morning of the job, the crew use that risk assessment to plan safely completing the work.
