"The city has a three-part management plan in place: to treat ash trees every three years by trunk injection; to remove ash trees that cannot be treated over a five- to six-year period, and to replace each of those ashes with a new species."

DON'T DRILL YOUR TREES!

Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) is an exotic beetle from Asia that arrived here in 2002 and it is responsible for killing hundreds of millions of ash trees across North America. In order to save your Ash tree it will need to have a preventive injection to be fully protected: even healthy trees will eventually become infected if not treated. Many municipalities have lost nearly 100% of all their ash trees.

We now have a product that can be safely injected into your ash tree, thus making the treatment safe for your children and pets. Several recent surveys suggest that mature trees in a well maintained landscape can add 7% to 19% in home value, let us help you protect your investment.

The cost of replacing or removing an infected or dead tree can cost 1000's of dollars, most tress can be protected for $60-$120 per year; depending on size. For example a 60 inch tree (Circumference 12 inches from ground) costs $112 dollars a year. That same tree can cost anywhere from $1,200 to $1,500 to remove and grind depending on location.

In effect, you can keep your tree alive for ten years at the same cost to treat plus you get to keep your beautiful tree which adds value to your home and lowers utility bills.
