Signs Your Trees and Shrubs Need Professional Care
Mature trees and ornamental shrubs add tremendous value to your property, but subtle signs of distress can signal trouble ahead. Many homeowners in suburban areas miss early warning signs until significant damage has already occurred.
Watch for these warning signs that your valuable trees and shrubs are struggling:
- Yellowing or browning leaves during the growing season
- Thinning canopy or premature leaf drop
- Visible pest activity like webbing, holes, or sawdust-like material
- Branch dieback or wilting sections in otherwise healthy plants
- Stunted growth or lack of flowering compared to previous seasons
- Unusual bumps, spots, or growths on bark or leaves
- Woodpecker activity often indicates insect infestations beneath bark
Eastern subterranean insects can quietly damage root systems while wood-boring pests create internal damage that remains hidden until branches begin failing. Spring weather in our area brings unique challenges as tree pests emerge from winter dormancy and begin actively feeding just as trees are pushing out new growth.
The dense canopies of mature shade trees often harbor scale insects and mites that feed on sap, gradually weakening even decades-old landscape specimens. Without proper seasonal treatments, these problems compound year after year.
At Harvest Lawn Care, our ISA-Certified Arborists provide targeted solutions through our comprehensive 6-step program. We understand the specific needs of ornamentals in New Jersey, where seasonal fluctuations create unique challenges for maintaining healthy trees and shrubs.
Emerald Ash Borer Treatment Protects Your Valuable Ash Trees
Those tiny metallic green beetles might seem harmless, but emerald ash borers devastate ash trees by laying eggs under the bark, where larvae feed on crucial tissues, stopping water and nutrient flow. Most infested trees die within 2-4 years without proper intervention, and D-shaped exit holes in bark often signal it's already too late. Don't gamble with DIY treatments that typically offer only 15% effectiveness—professional trunk injections provide up to two years of protection with nearly 90% success rates. Our certified arborists at Harvest Lawn Care deliver targeted treatment directly into your trees' vascular systems, controlling both adult beetles and destructive larvae before they cause irreversible damage to your valuable landscape investments.
