Ash, Oak, Elm, & Crabapple
Tree Treatment

Dutch elm disease (DED) is brought on by a dangerous fungal disease that elms such as American, rock, and slippery can be often more prone to getting it. This fungus attacks the water-conducting vessels causing them to clog, this stops all movement internally, causing the trees to wilt and die. Dutch elm disease is spread through elm bark beetles or by root graft. Early detection is key to protecting your elm tree(s). Flagging which is yellowing leaves on outer branches mid to late summer is an easy symptom to spot. We provide a trunk injection of a fungicide to protect your elm from getting Dutch elm disease.

Elm trees can be identified by their gray bark with deep furrows, pointed oval leaves that have double-serrated margins, and their large sprawling canopy. You can identify DED by if its leaves on one or more branches in the outer crown of the tree turn yellow.  

Apple scab is a fungal leaf disease that affects crabapple trees. Symptoms usually show late summer. Leaves have brown to black spots and usually turn yellow and fall off. Treatment is recommended if the tree is defoliated year after year in late summer. We provide a tree injection after the tree is done flowering and is in full leaf. You should see some improvement the first year but some leaf drop may still occur.
