Integrated Pest Management

In the end this is the heart of what we try to achieve. We prune trees to obtain their best shape. We cable to preserve structurally weak trees. We fertilize to enhance the natural agents in the soil. We apply growth regulators to stimulate the natural defense mechanisms in the tree. We spray to control pests using a combination of organic oils and biologics first, and then if we need to, we spray with pyrethrins second, as they are the next most safe. Lastly we use chemical insecticides or fungicides because sometimes that is all that will work, especially if the pathogen is a non-native pest. Stowe Tree Experts will always strive to use the most environmentally sound processes to make your trees the healthiest they can be.
