Blog Combatting Tree Pests and Diseases: Expert Solutions from NRV Tree Pro Jul 09, 2024

As the leading Tree Services company in the New River Valley area, NRV Tree Pro, LLC is dedicated to providing expert solutions for a range of tree care needs. One common issue that many of our customers face is dealing with tree pests and diseases that can threaten the health and safety of their trees. In this blog post, we will discuss some of the most common tree pests and diseases, as well as the expert solutions that NRV Tree Pro can provide to combat these issues.

One of the most common tree pests is the emerald ash borer, a destructive insect that targets ash trees. These pests feed on the inner bark of ash trees, disrupting the tree's ability to transport water and nutrients. If left untreated, emerald ash borers can quickly kill an ash tree. NRV Tree Pro offers professional insecticide treatments to protect ash trees from these damaging pests. Our team of arborists can assess the severity of the infestation and recommend the most effective treatment plan to eradicate the emerald ash borers and save the tree.

In addition to pests, trees are also susceptible to a variety of diseases that can weaken their structure and compromise their health. One common tree disease is oak wilt, a fungal infection that affects oak trees. Oak wilt blocks the flow of water and nutrients within the tree, causing the leaves to wilt and die. NRV Tree Pro is equipped to diagnose and treat oak wilt infections, using a combination of fungicides and pruning techniques to stop the spread of the disease and restore the tree's health.

Another prevalent tree disease is anthracnose, a fungal infection that affects a variety of tree species, including maple, sycamore, and dogwood. Anthracnose causes dark, dead spots to form on the leaves, leading to premature leaf drop and overall decline in tree health. NRV Tree Pro offers specialized fungicide treatments to combat anthracnose and prevent its spread to other trees in the area.

In addition to pest and disease management, NRV Tree Pro also provides preventative care services to keep trees healthy and resilient against future threats. Our team can assess the overall health of your trees, identify potential issues, and recommend appropriate treatments to maintain their well-being.
