Why Tree Spraying Is Important

​Tree spraying is primarily used to prevent the life of your valuable trees from hazardous fungal attacks, diseases, or insects when they are already suffering from visible, sometimes serious, fungal conditions. The correct kind of spray and its time to spraying is very important, and often the advantages of spraying should definitely outweigh the possible damage of spraying the wrong chemicals on your trees. If you have trees that are already suffering from some form of tree disease, insect attack, or fungus infection it would be a good idea to start spraying them at least a week prior to the actual outbreak of the problem. This way you can give your tree an ample amount of time to get healthy again before the pests or fungi cause any more problems for your garden or house. In fact spraying your tree too early could make matters even worse by killing or injuring your tree and leaving open a potentially susceptible root system.

There are many pests and fungi that eat trees including the most common garden pest, the ants. These insects like to dine on the leaves, twigs and bark of trees. And while this may sound pretty bad at first, all that is left for them to do is to break down your valuable fruits, vegetables and plants. The main problem with this is that ants and other pests cannot tell the difference between organic and inorganic matter. So, while they may not be able to snack on your garden vegetables, they will devour any insects like maggots who attempt to climb their treks.

If you are worried about getting rid of the insects like ants and moths from destroying your crops, then tree spraying may be exactly what you need to prevent them. And if you want to keep the arborist's precious plants, fruit trees, flowers and shrubs healthy, then you have to take proactive steps such as tree trimming and spraying at least a week before the insects' appearance. This can minimize their numbers so you don't have to worry about them destroying everything that you've worked so hard to grow. And since most insects are not too picky, you won't have to worry about them eating your trees or eating the fruits and vegetables that they may have taken as pests.

The process of tree spraying is simple. Since most shrubs and trees are already sprayed with a specific insecticide, all you have to do is get rid of the ants and their friends who are trying to eat them. You may hire an arborist to do this for you, or you may opt to do it yourself with the help of some helpful products which you can buy from a tree spraying company. Products like arbor reset, bait, powder, leaf and worm balls, and even the proper equipment are all used to prevent the growth of fungi and other pests on your trees.

But what happens when you don't have enough time to do these sprays and tree treatments? That's when you can turn to tree care companies and hire them to do the job for you. However, before hiring a tree care company to do work on your trees, you need to check first if they are properly trained to do tree care. Check their license and certifications, ask them for proof of insurance as well, and make sure that they are following good plant care standards. If all these checks fail, there is a possibility that they might also be dangerous to your health and to the environment as well, so always take note of those conditions before hiring them.

Tree spraying isn't only about keeping aphids and other insects away from your trees and plants. It also prevents diseases from spreading on your trees and on your people too. Aphids and other leafhoppers could destroy the quality of your soil, and that's why it's important to get a tree spraying service to eliminate them and prevent diseases from infecting your community.

There are various types of diseases that tree sprays prevent from spreading in your community. The most common disease that is treated using these sprays is the bark beetle, which can destroy your precious trees. When infested with beetles, the leaves of the trees start to curl up. The beatles find shelter under the leaves and start eating the tree bark, leaving behind a decayed and unhealthy root system. Tree sprays can also prevent against the leafhopper and other grub pests, such as the ground beetles and tunnel insects.

Some of the other diseases that tree spraying can prevent include the Asian beetles, cane beetles and the cottonseed moth. These pests feed off the sugars in the soil, causing serious damage to your trees and even sometimes to people and animals. Dust blown by wind can also cause trees to become diseased. And finally, some tree spraying products can help stop certain types of weeds from growing.
