    Dead EAB's under treated ash tree - good sign or bad?

    I am a homeowner who has done a lot of research on treating for EAB. I own my own ArborJet system, and last Thursday I treated my ash trees with TreeAge (second application at 2-year mark). Yesterday, my daughter noticed dozens of dead EAB's on the trampoline under one of the trees. Did the...

    What is the latest in the season that ash can be treated for EAB?

    Is it too late in the season to inject a tree with emamectin benzoate (TreeAge) for prevention against EAB? We have been having regular heavy rainfall lately, so I doubt if uptake would be a big issue, but wondering if the tree will have a chance to adequately distribute the chemical to the...

    Multitrunk ash treated with TreeAge - one trunk no leaf out

    I had several ash trees injected with emamectin benzoate (TreeAge) via the ArborJet system last summer. All of the trees leafed out well this spring, with the exception of one large multi-trunk ash. This one leafed out well on 3 of the 4 trunks, but the 4th one budded out with the usual pollen...

My question - is it reasonably doable with the Quickjet system, or do I need to spring an additional $300 and get the tree-IV kit? Any other recommendations? Hate to say it, but I feel...

    Too late in season to treat Ash with Tree-Age?

    I have about a dozen ash trees on my property that I would like to try to protect against the coming EAB invasion. I am going to treat the smaller ones with Imadacloprid applied to the drip line roots, but the larger trees will be treated with Emamectin Benzoate using the Arborjet system...

    Need advice pruning young sugar maples - pics included

    Howdy all, I have several small sugar maples in my yard that have some crotches that I am concerned will become weak as the tree gets larger. I thought it would be best to do the pruning while the trees are still relatively small and the trauma will be fairly easy for the tree to overcome...
