General Advice For The Fall: August 2016

The changing of the seasons is coming to the Richland area. You will want to make sure your trees and shrubbry is prepared for the chance. Here are some of the most important things you should be doing and looking for.

Sometimes we get so caught up in working towards the perfect yard and our trees and shrubs get neglected. This can be a problem in the fall, when we are generally busy preparing the soil and turf for the winter weather. This is why finding the right tree service is just as important as finding the right specialist to help with your lawn.

Just like your lawn, trees are vulnerable to all kinds of challenges, from drought and other weather conditions to pests. Sometimes, even fertilization can be overlooked, leaving your trees and shrubs at risk to disease and lawn damaging insects. It’s important to find a company that offers comprehensive tree services to help preserve the health and beauty of your trees. But what are some of the services you should be on the lookout for?

Complete evaluation of trees and shrubs
This kind of evaluation is very important, especially during your first time using any tree services company. It’s important to establish what trees you have, what the current issues could be and how to solve them.

Root fertilization
Just as your lawn benefits from fertilization in the fall, so do your trees. The key is to provide the optimal amount of fertilizer at the right time. Not enough and your trees and shrubs will suffer; too much fertilizer can actually kill the roots.

Seasonal protection
Whether your trees need special nutrients that keep them healthy and strong or treatment to fend off seasonal bugs and diseases, an affordable tree service company should understand how the particulars of each season affects your trees and shrubs, and they should have effective treatments for them. For instance, providing overwintering insect control, late-season foliage protection and targeted trunk injections of micronutrients helps your trees and shrubs reach and maintain their full potential.

Trimming and pruning
Pruning and trimming the dead or damaged parts of your trees greatly improves their health and appearance. Proper pruning helps maintain the size and shape of the plants, increases air and light penetration into the foliage canopy and promotes flowering and fruiting. Sometimes you even need a tree removal service for sick or damaged trees.

We look forward to being your first call when it comes to tree maintenance in Richland. Don’t hesitate calling us to ask us what you think are the smallest questions. We can’t wait to help you and have the chance to earn your business.
