Hemlock Woolly Adelgid Control – Windham County CT

 Save your trees from Hemlock Woolly Adelgid Infestation.

Contact From the Roots Up when you want to schedule tree spraying treatments to eliminate the Hemlock Woolly Adelgid in Windham County CT. In early spring, look for white cottony egg sacs on your hemlocks.  These appear at the base of the needles of the affected branches. The insects feed year round, sucking the hemlock sap for nourishment. Trees can die from an adelgid infestation, although it may take up to six years.

Hemlock woolly adelgid is a severe threat to the eastern hemlock species. If your hemlock trees are infected, call me. As a professional arborist, I can inspect the tree and prescribe treatments as necessary. Treatments may include spraying horticultural oils which are less toxic to beneficial insects. Maintaining a balance of beneficial insects is also important to the health of your trees. Accidental elimination of beneficial insects may upset the balance of the tree, resulting in an outbreak of other harmful insects, like mites.

Hemlocks should be monitored for adelgids regularly to keep your trees healthy. Oil treatments can be sprayed on the hemlock trees any time of year. The most favorable conditions for hemlock spraying would be between 50 and 82 degrees F. in a well hydrated tree. Horticultural oil treatments are relatively inexpensive. Because many generations of the woolly adelgid may appear on the trees, it is important to stay on top of the treatments.

Emerald Ash Borer Protection – Windham County CT

 We can protect your valuable ash trees from the emerald ash borer.

From the Roots Up provides treatments which will protect your ash trees from the emerald ash borer. Treatment for the elimination of the emerald ash borer is complex and must be done by a licensed arborist. I will come out to inspect your trees and give you a verbal evaluation. Healthy specimens can be saved from the ash borer, with ongoing treatments approximately every 2 years.

The affected specimen is treated with pressure injections of medication at the basal flare of the tree. First, a series of holes are drilled around the circumference of the tree. Needles are inserted into the holes which are connected to each other by tubing. A chemical is then applied under pressure through the needles into the basal flare of the tree.
