How do I control Japanese beetles on trees and shrubs?
Japanese beetles are shiny, metallic-green insects that can quickly damage your plants. Starting in late June, they feed on leaves, flowers, and fruits of many landscape plants – roses and birch trees are among their favorites. If you notice leaves that look like lace (with only the veins remaining), you likely have Japanese beetles. Getting ahead of these pests is key – our treatments protect your plants before these destructive insects arrive, saving you from watching helplessly as they damage your landscape.
How do I identify and treat bagworms on evergreen trees?
Keep an eye out for small, brown, pinecone-like bags hanging from your evergreen trees – these are bagworms. Though they might look harmless, these insects can seriously damage or kill your evergreens if left untreated. They’re especially common on arborvitae, spruce, and juniper trees. The baby bagworms hatch in late May, and this is when they’re easiest to control. Don’t wait until the bags are large and numerous – early treatment saves both your trees and your wallet.
What is the best treatment schedule for trees and shrubs?
Think of tree and shrub care like regular health check-ups – they need attention throughout the year, not just when there’s a problem. We typically visit 4-6 times per year, timing our treatments around when different insects emerge and when your plants need specific nutrients. This schedule helps prevent problems before they start and keeps your landscape healthy all year long. We’ll help you understand what we’re doing at each visit and why it matters for your plants.
When should I start treating newly planted trees and shrubs?
Just like a new baby needs extra care, newly planted trees and shrubs need special attention in their first year. It’s best to start care right away after planting – this helps your new plants develop strong roots and gets them off to a healthy start. Early care prevents many common problems that can harm young plants. While it might be tempting to wait and see how they do on their own, protecting your investment from the beginning is much easier than fixing problems later.
