Both add plenty of value to your property and reap a slew of benefits from creating shade to contributing to your lawn's overall aesthetic appeal, so it's no wonder why Tree and Shrub Care Services are so popular in Texas. Our Professional tree and shrub treatment program includes the following:
-
Spring Fertilization
Promotes richer color and growth and helps plants recover from winter dormancy. This treatment contributes to the health and life of the landscape.
-
Spring Foliage Protection
Insect and disease control reduces the disease impact and the early season pest damage for the trees and shrubs. It targets insects such as cankerworms, aphids, whiteflies, webworms, powdery mildew, and other typical funguses that incur here in our area.
-
Maturing Foliage Protection
Insect and disease control treatments are most effective in the later stages of spring-time when insect and disease infestation is prevalent. Helps with maturing foliage of trees and shrubs and becomes firmly established before the heat stress of summer. Additional target pests include tent caterpillars, spider mites, and elm leaf beetles.
-
Warm Weather Foliage Protection
Insect and disease control. This is ongoing pest control for insects that mature during the hottest part of the summer. There are also ongoing disease controls, as needed, dictated by the weather conditions.
-
Later Summer Foliage Protection
Insect and disease control that helps trees and shrubs recover from any infestations of the hot summer and this prepares and protects the trees and shrubs from any fall-feeding insects. Inspection and treatment for any existing or forecasted plant diseases.

Fall Dormant Oil Protection
We apply a foliar application of horticulture oil to your trees and shrubs while plants are dormant, this will prevent spring infestations over the winter. This application is very beneficial in controlling scale.
Local Tree Care Service
Some people think you just water trees occasionally, and that’s it. While watering certainly is important in caring for any tree, there’s more to it. To help with water retention, applying mulch around the base of the tree is a great idea. It also fights soil compaction and prevents weeds from cropping up.
Believe it or not, trees need fertilizer. When it comes to tree fertilization, determining exactly what kind to use requires knowledge of the tree, plus soil composition is both a science and an art. While that’s beyond most people, our tree spraying experts can handle the task with ease.
Perhaps one of the most confusing yet important aspects of tree care is pruning:
- You need to know when the best time is to prune each tree
- You should understand the best way to prune trees for optimal health and appearance
- Pruning incorrectly can open a tree up to infection or insect infestation

Shrub fertilization is another necessary item, but we don't recommend you go at it alone. You need to properly work the soil around the shrubs before applying the fertilizer, plus use a fertilizer that’s optimal for the shrub and soil composition, otherwise, you can do more harm than good.
