Property Management Tree Care, Pests and Diseases
Property managers are responsible for the aesthetic and financial condition of the properties entrusted to their care. Tree care is a major part of a site\’s appeal and property value.
Pests
Tree pests and diseases are a tough issue in property management tree care. If left untreated, pests like Spring & Fall Cankerworm, Eastern Tent Caterpillars or Gypsy Moths can weaken or kill a tree. More exotic insects — like the Emerald Ash Borer or the Asian Long-Horned Beetle — can devastate entire tree populations.
Diseases
Diseases like Oak Wilt and Fireblight threaten to do the same.
When pests or disease attack a tree\’s natural immune system, the life span of the tree is shortened… possibly adding to increased expenses and headaches at a property manger\’s site.
Advanced Tree Care experts are available to accurately assess trees to identify problems and develop an appropriate care plan. Non-chemical controls are usually suggested as the first line of defense — besides being environmentally responsible, they allow a tree to fight issues naturally, which improves its overall health. When the tree is unable to fight the pests or disease in more extreme cases, chemical options may be recommended to speed up the recovery process.
