# Tree Health Warning Signs Every Homeowner Should Know
Is your landscaping trying to tell you something? Mature trees add beauty and value to your property, but detecting tree problems early can save you thousands in removal costs and prevent property damage.
**Trees in our area face numerous health challenges throughout the year.**
* Bark that appears cracked, peeling, or shows unusual discoloration
* Bare branches or thinning leaf coverage during the growing season
* Fungal growths or mushrooms appearing at the base of the trunk
* Splitting or leaning trunks that indicate potential structural issues
* Premature leaf drop or leaves that turn brown before fall
* Visible pest activity such as borer holes or leaf-eating insects
* Excessive deadwood throughout the canopy
When these symptoms appear, your trees are sending distress signals that shouldn't be ignored. Eastern subterranean insects and regional diseases can quickly turn a minor issue into a major problem, especially with our challenging four-season climate. Winter storms can worsen existing structural weaknesses, while summer drought places additional stress on already compromised trees.
At Harvest Lawn Care, our ISA-Certified Arborists understand the unique challenges facing your landscape. We've designed our 6-step program to address these specific issues with carefully timed treatments that protect your valuable ornamentals throughout the year. From spring dormant oil applications to specialized trunk injections, we offer comprehensive solutions tailored to the specific needs of your property.
Don't wait until that favorite shade tree becomes a safety hazard. Professional intervention at the first sign of trouble can preserve your landscape investment for years to come.
Save Your Ash Trees From Emerald Ash Borers
Those tiny metallic green beetles might look harmless, but emerald ash borers are silent killers that can destroy your ash trees within just 2-4 years. Look for D-shaped exit holes in bark, unusual woodpecker activity, and thinning canopies—all warning signs of an infestation. Don't wait until it's too late! Store-bought treatments typically only have a 15% success rate, while Harvest Lawn Care's professional trunk injections are nearly 90% effective and provide protection for up to two full growing seasons. Our certified arborists deliver targeted treatment that stops both adult beetles and destructive larvae, saving you the significant cost and heartache of removing beloved trees from your property.
