Tree Trimming Services Near Me

12/11/2019

 
Picture
You might have considered doing your own tree trimming, especially if you have a lot of time on your hands. Whether you have your own home with a lot of trees around or you own a commercial property and you want to make those trees look great again, it is imperative to hire a tree service instead of trimming the trees on your own.

Before looking at some reasons to hire a professional tree trimmer or an arborist, let’s take a closer look at what actually does an arborist do.

What is an Arborist

An arborist is a qualified professional who maintains shrubs and trees through pruning and trimming. His job is to ensure that trees do not interfere with public roads, power lines or sidewalks. Additionally, arborists can enhance the value and appearance of trees.

Arborists can be either hired by the municipality or can be the representative of a tree trimming company. Arborists are also known under the name of ground workers, tree climbers, tree trimmers or line clearance foremen.

Some arborists are experts in the beautification art, shaping trees and making ornamental trees come alive. Others know how to properly prune trees in order to improve their health so that trees can keep our cities safe, prevent erosion, stabilize slopes and also help counteract the “heat island dessert” which is so common in big cities.

Why Hiring an Arborist in Fort Worth, Texas

Just like any other state from the South that benefits of a warm climate, Texas is never lacking hot, humid summers. The need for arborists is greater than ever.

If you’ve thought of doing your own tree trimming, you should be aware of the drawbacks of tackling this problem on your own. You can get seriously injured, you can damage your property and you may also damage your trees in the long run.

Conversely, hiring a tree service professional can help you enjoy the peace of mind that the tree removal or tree trimming service will go as planned. Professionals also carry out insurance, so if accidents occur, you are totally safe. You’ll not be held liable for any issue whatsoever that happens around your property. Thus, you can rest assured that your land clearing will go by the book and you won’t need to pay any extra money.

When it comes to stump grinding, things can become dangerous. That’s where an experienced arborist can help you more than you can imagine. Professional tree trimmers come equipped with all the tools needed for the job, so they can do a great job without endangering their lives.

To top it all, a professional arborist can dramatically enhance the appearance of your trees. In addition to ensuring that your trees are healthy and do not pose a threat to other people, they also make sure to make your trees aesthetically pleasing. They are experts with both the science of tree trimming and the art that revolves around tree appeal.

If you are looking for a professional tree trimming contractor in Fort Worth, TX, do not hesitate to give us a call and we’ll make you benefit from top-notch tree trimming and tree removal services.

Signs Of a Sick Shrub In Fort Worth, Texas

11/21/2019

 
Picture

MY SHRUB DOESN'T LOOK HEALTHY.  WHAT CAN BE WRONG WITH It?

There are a variety of reasons why your shrub doesn't appear healthy. Improper growing conditions, insect problems and plant diseases can all be contributing factors for declining shrubs.  When in doubt as to the health of your shrubs or trees it is always best to contact an arbor care professional. The experienced plant pathologist will inspect the shrub and provide a diagnosis report.

WHAT IMPROPER GROWING CONDITIONS CAN AFFECT MY SHRUBS HEALTH?

1. Overcrowding Of Shrubs & Plants
Shrubs and plants that are initially planted to closely together do not have adequate space for proper root growth.

2. Compacted Soil
Shrubs and trees are known by arbor care experts as woody plants because they have the potential to grow deeper root systems.  Compacted soil prevents sufficient root development.

3. Improper Watering
Do not second-guess the water needs of your shrubs.  Shrubs can die due to excessive or improper watering.  Always entrust the expertise of a plant care specialist.

4. Extreme Temperatures Or Sunlight
Shrubs and trees must be planted where they receive the sunlight they require and are not subjected to extreme temperatures.  Planting in locations that are not proper for the type of shrub can result in its demise.

WHAT INSECT PESTS DAMAGE SHRUBS?

The following are two of the most destructive insects that experienced plant pathologists and arbor care experts frequently encounter and battle in Fort Worth. 

1. Aphids
At first seeming to be an annoyance, these tiny insects reproduce swiftly and quickly overtake your entire outdoor habitat.  They cluster together on stems and leaves and extract the nutrients from the plants.  Left untreated, the leaves will yellow, wilt and begin dying.

2. Sprider Mites
These microscopic pests are so common that it is more unusual not to have them!  They thrive in warm Texas spring weather.  They siphon nutritional fluids from leaves and inflict tiny bite marks on the topside of leaves and silky webbing on the underside.  Without treatment, spider mites not only overtake the outdoor grounds but also will invade your house plants. They can quickly kill the infested plant.

ARE THERE SERIOUS DISEASES THAT CAN DAMAGE OR KILL SHRUBS?

Below are some common plant diseases frequently seen throughout Fort Worth.

1. Powdery Mildew
This fungal disease causes plants to appear as if they have been sprinkled with flour.  The white dusty spots will swiftly engulf plant leaves and overtake your outdoor grounds.  Treatment must be administered quickly to preserve your plants and your residential outdoor environment.

2. Mosaic Disease
A number of viral diseases known as "mosaics" affect plants.  This causes parts of leaves to turn yellow and blotched and appear in a mosaic-like pattern.  Mosaic disease does not often destroy shrubs but it is visually displeasing.   

3. Fire Blight
This bacterial disease invades more than 75 varieties of shrubs and trees.  It spreads rapidly in damp spring weather via splashing rain.  Fire blight causes new growth to turn black and leaves to die.  It sometimes will kill the entire shrub or tree.

WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT MY SICK SHRUB AND HOW CAN I KEEP MY SHRUBS HEALTHY?

1. Contact An Experienced Tree & Plant Company
Proactive measures are always best to ensure your shrubs and trees are protected.  Entrust the care of your residential outdoor environment and your valuable shrubs and trees to the best arborist in Fort Worth, Texas.  The arbor care professionals and plant and tree experts will see to it that your shrubs and trees remain healthy.  They will advise you as to the best plants to plant in the areas within your outdoor grounds.

2. Regular Pruning 
Diseased branches should be pruned regularly by a pruning service using sanitized tools.  Regularly-scheduled pruning prevents disease from infiltrating throughout the entire shrub.

3. Removed Seriously Infested Or Diseased Shrubs
Severely diseased or dead trees, shrubs and plants should be immediately removed by a professional tree and plant removal company.  This prevents insect pests and diseases from overtaking your grounds and spreading to your healthy shrubs and trees.

4. Controlled Watering
The arbor care expert will analyze your habitat grounds and determine the proper watering your shrubs and trees need.  Controlled and monitored watering by means of soil drenching and soaker hoses ensures that your trees and shrubs do not suffer from drought-like conditions or have standing water surrounding them that will invite fungal ailments.

5. Continual Tree & Plant Health Care Maintenance Plan
The highly-experienced and knowledgeable tree and plant experts will customize an ongoing tree and plant health care program exclusively for you.  This will eliminate you of the concern for your valuable living investment's health and you will have peace in knowing that your residence, trees and plants will always remain beautiful, healthy and strong.

CARING FOR YOUNG TREES

10/23/2019

 
Picture
We are your go-to resource for the finest, most extensive tree care service in Fort Worth, Texas and the DFW metroplex region.  For more than 25 years, Tree Service Fort Worth has cared for the trees of homeowners throughout the extensive area we provide tree care  services for. 

Most homeowners do not realize the care that young trees require, so don't think you're alone!  Our family-owned and locally-based company puts you first! 

​Feel free to call us at (817) 502- 9402 and speak with our ISA certified arborist, tree care expert and team of highly-experienced arbor care professionals.  We welcome any questions you have!   

​I JUST PLANTED SOME SMALL TREES.  WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Caring for young trees is much like watching over a small child.  In order for your young trees to survive and flourish, they must be treated with tender loving care. 

​After the first several years, the young trees will not require as much hands-on attention.  Remember, your young trees have been subjected too much stress and must become accustomed to their new environment.  They must increase their root systems to be safely secured in the ground.

DEEP WATERING

Shallow surface watering causes the trees to establish weak surface roots.  Deep watering encourages the trees to develop robust root structures that anchor the trees and increase their strength. 

Once a week, check the soil moisture approximately six inches below ground.  The soil should be moist but not wet.  During periods of drought as often occurs during our hot Texas summers, watch for wilted or curled leaves. 

​Contact an experienced tree company if you begin observing this on your young trees.

NATURAL MULCH

Mulch is very important, but don't go crazy with it!  Natural, organic mulch is safe and gentle to your young trees.  Don't put the mulch all the way up to the tree's trunk. 

​Mulch helps keep the moisture in the soil.  Weeds are stifled from the mulch and your young trees won't have to compete with weed and grass roots.

LIGHTLY TRIM​

​Avoid pruning young trees.  Lightly trim them only too shape or to remove broken twigs and branches.  

GO EASY ON CHEMICALS

Pesticides and herbicides can damage or burn the roots and foliage of young trees.  Keep these chemicals away from your young trees. 

​After your trees are two-three years old, they are less apt to suffer damage from chemicals; however, go easy with the chemicals near any of your trees.

PROTECT THE TREES FROM WOUNDING

Always have your regular lawn maintenance taken care of by a professional, experienced tree company.  Serious tree diseases and insect infestations invade trees through wounds.  Damages from weed trimmers, mowers or shovels put the health of young trees in jeopardy. 

​Remember, they are trying to establish themselves.  Avoid planting decorative plants close to the young trees.  Not only does this guard against unintentional wounding, it prevents your trees from having to compete with the root systems of weeds and decorative bedding plants.

MY NEIGHBOR SAID TO JUST WATER THEM A LOT.  HOW MUCH WATER DO MY YOUNG TREES NEED?

Watering should be closely monitored.  Trees need more than just water to remain strong, healthy and have a high resilience to diseases and insect pests. 

​Too much water can be just as damaging as too little water.  Always contact a tree expert who will advise you on the needs of your specific trees.

ALL I DO FOR MY BIG TREES IS RUN MY SPRINKLER SYSTEM.  ISN'T THAT ENOUGH FOR MY YOUNG TREES?

Unfortunately, no.  Sprinkler systems tend to leave standing water in lower areas within your outdoor grounds.  Tree foliage can become too wet and air doesn't circulate between the branches properly. 

​Fungal tree diseases thrive in wet conditions.  Controlled watering methods overseen, directed and administered by a tree care specialist guarantee that your trees will receive the water they need and will eliminate the threat of destructive fungal tree diseases.

​HOW CAN I BE SURE MY NEW TREES STAY HEALTHY?

When you have questions or concerns, always ask a certified arborist.  It takes many years of experience, on-the-job training and completed stringent tests to become an ISA certified arborist in Texas.  No one can advise you with accuracy and precision like a highly-experienced tree care expert can.

I DON'T WANT TO WORRY ABOUT ALL MY TREES.  WHAT CAN I DO?

Entrust the care of your trees and outdoor environment to the best arborist in Fort Worth, Texas.  We always provide a free consultation.  No two homeowners have the identical habitat grounds and trees. 

After closely inspecting your outdoor environment and the specific trees you have, we customize a continual maintenance tree and outdoor grounds health care plan exclusively for you.  This will eliminate you of the worry and work that maintaining healthy trees and a beautiful outdoor environment require. 

You will have peace of mind in knowing that your trees will remain healthy and strong.  All of our arbor care professionals are bonded, insured and wear company uniforms for your easy identification and to ensure your safety and the safety of all those present. 

​Contact us today at (817) 502- 9402 and schedule your complimentary consultation.  You can trust Tree Service Fort Worth to provide you the finest service at the best prices to be found anywhere.  We look forward to meeting you!

HOW TO PROPERLY PRUNE YOUR TREES

10/23/2019

 
Picture
​As the largest provider of full tree care services to Fort Worth, Texas and the entire DFW metroplex region for over 25 years, Tree Service Fort Worth has pruned the trees of many homeowners and businesses throughout our area. 

Our ISA certified arborist, tree care expert and entire team of arbor care professionals are licensed, insured and bonded for your protection, the protection of your home and the protection of all those present within your outdoor grounds. 

​Like any skill, pruning a tree properly requires extensive experience and training to do it correctly.  When in doubt, contact an experienced tree company.  Call us today at (817) 502- 9402.  We always provide a free consultation!

IS PRUNING a TREE REALLY DIFFICULT?

The old idea that using a handsaw or chainsaw is all you need to properly prune trees couldn't be farther from the truth!  We'll put it this way, it is better for your trees not to prune them rather than to prune them incorrectly. 

In nature, does anyone prune those trees?  Haven't you seen impressive, towering trees growing freely in forests or out in the country?  Nature tends to those trees naturally.  In established residential neighborhoods, trees must be tended too and cared for properly.  It takes more to prune trees correctly than just using a handsaw or swinging around a chainsaw! 

​Always contact a tree care specialist when you need assistance with tree pruning.  Your trees are valuable investments that greatly increase your property value.  Don't take chances with your living investments.

MY NEIGHBOR SAID TO JUST CHOP THE BRANCHES OFF AND USE A SEALANT.  IS THAT OKAY?

Definitely not.  Branches and limbs must be cut with precision and accuracy.  You can't just chop them off or your tree will become vulnerable to diseases and infectious agents.  It once was believed that sealants protect the trees; however, sealants can interfere with the tree's natural ability to heal its own wounds. 

​When sealants and tars are used today it is primarily for aesthetic purposes.  In the US, more trees are destroyed or killed each year from improper pruning than from tree diseases.  Do not attempt to prune your own trees without studying and practicing the correct steps.  

CAN'T I JUST USE MY CHAINSAW TO PRUNE MY TREES

​Of course you can, but you run the risk of destroying your trees.  To summarize the definition quickly, pruning is removing parts of the tree to improve its health, enhance your landscape visually or increase the tree's value.  Proper tree pruning must be planned with accuracy.  The fewer the cuts, the better it is for your tree. 

The cuts must be angled correctly and placed in the proper location on the branch.  Tools must be cleaned properly to eliminate the possibility of spreading contamination throughout your tree or the trees in your area. 

​Know your tools and study the correct cutting procedures.  Don't ask an unskilled laborer, friend or neighbor how to properly prune your trees.  Always contact a tree care specialist who will answer your questions and give you expert advise.

​DO I REALLY NEED TO CALL A PROFESSIONAL TO PRUNE MY TREES?

​Unless you are willing and able to study and practice the correct cutting methods and hone your skills using the correct pruning tools, it is always best to entrust the difficult task of tree pruning to an experienced arbor care professional.  Tree pruning is not the same as lightly trimming a tree for visual appeal! 

Tree Service Fort Worth puts you first, so call us and schedule your complimentary consultation with our highly-experienced tree care expert.  We are happy to answer any questions you have regarding properly pruning your trees.  If you desire to learn the specific steps needed to prune your trees yourself correctly, we will aid you in learning and perfecting this difficult, challenging task. 

​Give us a call today at (817) 502- 9402.  We look forward to meeting with you and discussing the options you have.

5 Signs Of A Dying Tree in Fort Worth, TX

Signs of Dying Trees in Fort Worth, TX
Below are 5 signs of a dying tree in Fort Worth, TX.

Tree Service Fort Worth has provided the finest tree care services to homeowners and businesses in Fort Worth, Texas and the entire DFW metroplex area for more than 25 years.

Our family-owned and locally-based experienced tree company provides you with the highest quality tree care services available and at the lowest prices to be found anywhere.

As you might expect, we are frequently asked if a tree is sick or dying. If you are questioning the health of your tree, give us a call at (817) 502-9402. You are top priority with us, provide a free consultation and we gladly welcome your questions!

I Have A Tree That Looks Terrible. Is It Dying?

Sick and dying trees frequently exhibit similar symptoms initially.  We always advice that if your tree looks terrible, don't ignore it!  When in doubt, contact a tree care specialist immediately.

Your tree will be closely examined by an ISA certified arborist and a diagnosis report will be presented to you after the cause of your declining tree is determined. If your tree has an incurable disease, is already dead or is too severely sick, tree removal will be necessary.

As with any disease, the earlier you treat it the less damage that will occur. Unfortunately, we meet many homeowners who wait too long. Don't let that be you!

What Signs Do Dying Trees Show in Fort Worth, TX?

In general, there are five warning signs you should watch for. If you observe any of the following, contact an arbor care professional promptly.
  1. Fungal Presence: No matter where you notice fungal presence throughout your outdoor habitat, it is never a positive sign. Standing water, excessive soil moisture and poor drainage due to compacted soil causes damaging fungi to thrive. If you observe fungi on your tree's trunk or around its baseline, the tree may be in the process of dying. Contact a tree care specialist quickly!
  2. Odd Tree Trunk Appearance: Is the bark on your tree's trunk consistent in appearance? Is there bald areas with missing bark or dents and cracks? Does the area around branches that connect to the trunk appear damaged? All these symptoms are cause for alarm.
  3. Excessive/Untimely Leaf Loss: Premature defoliation is a warning sign. Many trees naturally shed their leaves in the fall; however, if your tree seems to be shedding an excessive amount of leaves or losing its leaves during seasons when leaf-shedding isn't typical, don't delay in requesting diagnosis and treatment. Furthermore, if your tree's foliage is wilted, shriveled or discolored, the tree is either suffering from a tree disease or is slowly dying.
  4. Branches Falling or Dead Branches: Severe weather conditions can cause tree branches to break. A healthy tree will have pliable, flexible branches. If you see dead branches on your outdoor grounds, inspect them closely. Are they brittle with no leaves? Do they appear to be rotted or destroyed by insects? A quick tip is to grab a small fallen branch and try to snap it. If it breaks easily rather than being flexible, the tree may be dead or dying.
  5. Damage To Tree Roots: Some trees naturally lean depending upon where they are planted. If your tree appears to be tilted, you may have root damage. Indications include exposed root areas, uplifted soil around the tree's base or noticeable wounds from weed trimmers, shovels and the like.

Do not ignore any of the above symptoms! A dying tree can topple over without notice and not only threaten your property but can put you in danger. Call an arbor care specialist immediately!

Who Can Help Me If I Have A Dying Tree?

We can! No matter what your tree care needs are, we have the ISA certified arborist, tree care expert, tree doctors and highly-experienced arbor care professionals to take care of you!

​Our team is insured and bonded to give you the assurance that your property, yourself and all those present are safe and protected.

TREES NOT LEAFING OUT IN FORT WORTH, TEXAS

4/8/2019

 
IT'S SPRING. WHY  DOESN'T MY TREE HAVE ANY LEAVES?
When your tree is not growing new leaves in springtime, it is most likely due to the fact that the tree has been subjected to stress. Stress can cause even healthy trees to become weak, vulnerable and exhibit signs of a declining tree or manifest undesirable symptoms.

WHAT HAS CAUSED MY TREE TO BECOME STRESSED?

  • UNSEASONAL TEMPERATURE CHANGES
Warming trends during winter months and unexpected freezing temperatures or frost in early spring cause a tree to not develop new growth when expected. In addition, drought-like conditions, as is typical of summer heat here in Fort Worth, can stress a tree and inhibit new growth.

  • DAMAGING WINDS AND STORMS
Severe storms can weaken a tree and cause stress. High winds cause cracks in branches and branches falling, making the tree vulnerable to tree disease. Winds pull the tree by its roots and make it difficult for the root system to absorb water properly.

  • OVERCROWDED TREES & PLANTS
Frequently, trees are planted too closely together. Their root systems and branches overlap as they grow and they must compete for water and proper sunlight.

  • POOR DRAINAGE AND STANDING WATER 
Residential outdoor environments often develop areas with excessive soil moisture, standing water or compacted soil. Without adequate drainage tree roots can begin decaying and damaging fungal pathogens develop.

CAN A TREE DISEASE CAUSE MY TREE TO NOT LEAF OUT?
Yes. There are numerous tree diseases common in the Fort Worth area that can cause trees not to develop new foliage growth. An experienced plant pathologist will examine the tree and provide a diagnosis report.

WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT MY TREE NOT GROWING LEAVES AND HOW CAN I PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN?

  • CONTACT AN EXPERIENCED TREE COMPANY
Any time you are questioning the health of your trees it is always best to contact the best arborist in Fort Worth, Texas. The ISA certified arborists, tree doctors, tree care specialists and tree experts have extensive knowledge and experience and will prevent your tree from suffering permanent damage.

  • CONTINUAL TREE HEALTH CARE MAINTENANCE PLAN
Arbor care professionals will personalize a continual tree health care maintenance program exclusively for you, your outdoor grounds and your trees. Any areas within your grounds that have improper drainage will be rectified by the tree care specialists. You will have peace of mind in knowing that your trees will always remain healthy and strong.

  • DEEP ROOT FERTILIZATION
Trees must have adequate nutrition to remain healthy.  Many homeowners mistakenly think lawn fertilizer is sufficient for their trees, so you are not alone. With this important tree health care treatment, the highly-skilled tree expert injects under pressure the specific liquid nutrients the tree requires directly into its root zone. Injected oxygen eliminates soil compaction. Trees that receive this key treatment annually are 95% more resistant to disease and their root systems thrive.  

  • REGULARLY-SCHEDULED PRUNING
Regularly-scheduled pruning by a tree pruning service eliminates overcrowded branches and allows the tree to receive adequate sunlight and air circulation.

TREE BRANCHES DYING IN FORT WORTH, TEXAS Call (817) 502-9402

3/15/2019

 
WHY ARE THE BRANCHES ON MY TREES DYING
When your trees have branches that are dying, breaking or branches falling then the tree is most often suffering from a tree disease. The proactive approach is to always contact an experienced tree company and consult with an ISA certified arborist. Arbor care professionals adhere to the high standards that the International Society of Arboriculture is known and respected for.  

WHAT IS CAUSING THE DEAD BRANCHES AND BRANCHES FALLING OFF?
Many infectious pathogens can inflict serious damage to trees.  The two tree diseases below are incurable and are capable of causing irreparable destruction to your trees.

SUDDEN OAK DEATH
Triggered by a water mold pathogen, this lethal tree disease multiplies rapidly in cool, moist soil and rainy spring weather. Many homeowners in Fort Worth are losing their high-value oak trees to this destructive tree killer. In addition to oaks, it targets many tree varieties and always invades trees that have suffered injuries and have a lower immunity to disease. Infected trees will exhibit thinning foliage and reduced new growth. Broken twigs, dead branches and branches falling manifest as the disease progresses. The tree will die swiftly when symptoms are severe so contact an arborist that treats sick trees immediately when you have a sick tree! 

GANODERMA
Experienced plant pathologists consider the most destructive fungal pathogen infecting trees to be ganoderma. This complex, combative fungus is often known as heart rot because it literally destroys a tree from the inside out. Minor injury to the tree's root structure invites invasion by this dangerous tree disease. The infected tree exhibits premature defoliation, wilted foliage and dead or broken branches. Large, mushroom-like structures appear along the tree's baseline and these spread the spores rapidly throughout your outdoor grounds. Severely infected trees can literally topple over and endanger life and property. Do not delay in contacting a tree doctor when you have an unhealthy tree that is exhibiting any of these symptoms.

WHAT SHOULD I DO IF MY TREE CAN'T BE SAVED OR IS DEAD?
Dead and severely infected trees, tree stumps and all ground debris must be immediately removed and destroyed by an experienced tree removal company. These tree experts are insured and bonded and employ the best safety measures to protect your residence and outdoor environment. Tree removal is not an easy process and should always be entrusted to an experienced tree company that has extensive experience in the removal of trees, as this can be a dangerous endeavor and should never be attempted by anyone other than experienced tree care professionals. Elimination and destruction of dead trees and ground debris will prevent lethal tree diseases from infecting your other trees and from infiltrating your outdoor grounds. 

HOW DO I PROTECT MY TREES?
The best means of guarding the health of your trees is to prevent serious tree ailments from ever infecting them! Entrust the care of your residential outdoor environment and your valuable trees to the best arborist in Fort Worth, Texas. The highly-experienced tree care specialists have many years of extensive experience in protecting the health of trees and plants throughout our area.  
   
Deep root fertilization is a highly-recommended tree health treatment that is administered by a specialized tree expert. The specific liquid minerals and nutrients the tree requires are injected under pressure into its root zone. Trees that receive this important treatment annually are 95% less apt to become infected by a disease and their root system will thrive due to the injected oxygen that creates soil aeration.

  
Protecting your trees from accidental wounding to their roots is vital. Roots can be damaged by shovels used in regular lawn care maintenance and decorative plantings. Always entrust your regular ground maintenance and the planting of bedding plants to an experienced tree company.

  
Regularly-scheduled pruning by a tree pruning service that uses sanitized tools will ensure that any infected foliage is removed and the disease cannot spread throughout the tree's structure. Pruning makes certain that the leaves receive adequate sunlight and that air circulates throughout the tree's branches.

  
Entrust the care of your residential outdoor environment and your prized trees to arbor care professionals. Your trees add value to your property and their health should be protected. Tree care specialists will customize a unique continual tree and plant health care program exclusively for you. You will have peace of mind in knowing that your residential grounds will always be admirable and your prized trees will remain protected and thrive.

TREE LEAVES TURNING BROWN IN FORT WORTH, TEXAS

3/14/2019

 
Picture
MY TREE'S LEAVES ARE TURNING BROWN. IS MY TREE SICK?
When the foliage on your tree turns brown then the tree is most likely suffering from a tree disease. It is always best to contact an experienced tree company promptly because early treatment prevents serious damage to your tree from occurring.  

WHAT TREE DISEASES CAUSE THE FOLIAGE TO TURN BROWN?

  • OAK WILT

ARE THERE TREATMENTS THAT WILL PROTECT MY TREES AND BOOST THEIR HEALTH?
Yes! The best arborist in Fort Worth Texas will advise you on the health-boosting treatments that are best for you and your residential habitat. Some of these important treatments include:

DEEP ROOT FERTILIZATION
We strongly recommend this important treatment! Trees rarely receive adequate nutrition from topical lawn fertilizer applications.

Compacted soil is also corrected by this process and the soil is aerated. Trees that receive this key treatment annually are 95% more disease resistant. Their root structures flourish and their immunity to disease and insect infestation is boosted tremendously.

TREE HEALTH ASSESSMENT
Performed by an ISA certified arborist, the tree is closely examined to determine if it is weakened and vulnerable to disease infection. The nutrients that the tree requires are determined by the tree expert and the arbor care professionals will be able to ensure your tree remains healthy.

TREE GROWTH REGULATORS
Large, mature trees often grow faster than their roots are able to support their stature. Tree growth regulators increase the root density of the tree and greatly boost the tree's immunity to disease. Trees are more able to withstand the severe temperature changes that frequently occur in Fort Worth. This valuable treatment lasts five years. 

ROOT PRUNING
Trees that are planted in buckets in nurseries or decorative pots develop curled roots as they grow. Frequently, trees that are planted in small areas grow larger than space permits. Root pruning prevents destructive girdled roots from occurring.  Girdled roots can inhibit the flow of water and nutrients throughout the tree's structure and cannot only stunt the tree's growth but can eventually destroy the tree.

PROFESSIONAL LAWN MAINTENANCE
Unfortunately, unintentional wounding can occur from weed trimmers, shovels and general lawn care and outdoor habitat maintenance.  Enlisting the service of an arbor care company ensures that accidental wounding will not take place.

TREE GROWTH REGULATORS

PREVENT STRESSFUL CONDITIONS
Even healthy trees that have a natural resistance against disease can become weak and vulnerable when affected by stress.  Stress can occur from numerous factors such as turbulent weather, construction activities within close vicinity to the tree, and inadequate sunlight.  A tree care specialist will provide you with the knowledge and services necessary to protect your tree from stress.

SIGNS OF BORER INSECTS IN FORT WORTH, TEXAS

3/1/2019

 

​WHAT ARE BORER INSECTS? Call (817) 502-9402.

For an arbor care professional, borer insects are taken very seriously. Once borer insects have invaded the tree's bark and are reproducing they become difficult to control. If not halted quickly, these insects can cause serious damage to the tree and eventually kill it. They gain entrance through the tree's bark and shut down the tree's vascular system. This prevents the tree from adequately dispersing nutrients and water throughout its structure and through its branches. Unfortunately, the majority of the damage these insects cause is on the inside of the tree and cannot be easily seen. An infected tree will first have a general ailing appearance, leaf loss and thinning foliage. Small holes in the tree's bark and branches indicate their presence.

ARE BORER INSECTS COMMON IN FORT WORTH?

There are many borer insects prevalent in north Texas. The largest is the cottonwood borer beetle that is black and cream and targets cottonwood, willow and poplar trees. Wood borers include flathead beetles, clearwing moths and the rhododendron borer. These attack ornamental trees, shade tree varieties, fruit trees and shrubs. The emerald ash borer is a green beetle that invades only ash trees and that has killed over 200 million ash trees in the United States. These insects are a serious tree care problem in our community.

HOW CAN I PROTECT MY TREE FROM BORER INSECTS?

Protecting your tree's health is key! Providing supportive health treatments such as deep root fertilization, systemic deep root feeding and tree growth regulators increases the tree's immunity. Wounds can make trees vulnerable to invasion so guarding your tree from accidental wounds caused by excessive activity within close range of the tree or regular lawn maintenance is essential. Strong, healthy trees have a higher resistance to insect pests and tree diseases. An experienced tree company is able to advise you and administer health-supportive treatments.

WHAT CAN BE DONE TO ELIMINATE BORER INSECTS?

Insecticide applications and trunk injections administered by an arborist that treats sick trees may be effective providing the tree is only mildly infested. Any dead or severely infested trees must be eliminated and destroyed by a professional tree service, as well as fallen branches or ground debris. This will eliminate many insects and larvae. Tree pruning by a tree trimming service eliminates insect eggs that are hidden in bark crevices. It is imperative to contact an arbor care expert immediately when you suspect that your tree is declining, as early treatment is essential.

OUR REVIEWS

2018-1-01

These guys were great. Very professional and knocked out a big job in just a few short hours. They clearly knew what they were doing and went above and behind to carefully analyze the health of each tree, and what was needed. As opposed to trimming and moving on. I highly recommend. They did my neighbor as well.

Very happy in my dealings with Henry and his crew. Henry came out on short notice to provide some recommendations on trimming and keeping one of my pecan trees healthy. His crew was able to come out a couple days later and were very professional and efficient. They even took the bigger limbs that were removed and cut them down for firewood and stacked the wood. Will definitely work with them again for future tree care.

Had just closed on the new house with beautiful landscape to discover my cypress trees dying and other trees on the property looking ill. Called two other arborist before I discovered Henry. Though there was no saving my already dying trees; the others were diagnosed, treated and saved. Henry was not only knowledgeable but also professional, friendly and extremely reasonable. It is almost shocking to find people like him these days. Highly recommended to all!
