Treatments for the Emerald Ash Borer
The Emerald Ash Borer is an invasive species from Asia that attacks Ash trees. Droege Tree Care traditionally administers EAB treatments during May and June, which are good for 2 years. If you have an Ash tree on your property, your first step is to establish whether or not the tree is "worthy" of treatment (large enough and healthy enough) or if it is more cost-effective to remove the tree and plant a new species. Feel free to give us a call to set up an appointment to discuss your options!
