Emerald Ash Borer Prevention


Protect Your Ash Trees Before It’s Too Late

Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) is an invasive beetle that kills ash trees by feeding on the tissues under the bark, cutting off the tree’s ability to transport water and nutrients. Once a tree shows visible signs of infestation, it is often too late to save it.

What is Emerald Ash Borer?

Emerald Ash Borer is a small, metallic green beetle originally from Asia. Since its discovery in the United States in 2002, it has killed tens of millions of ash trees across the country. Infestations spread quickly and can wipe out entire stands of ash trees if not treated.

How We Can Help

We offer professional insecticide trunk injections to protect your ash trees against Emerald Ash Borer. These treatments:

  • Prevent infestations before they start
  • Are applied directly into the tree’s vascular system, minimizing environmental impact
  • Provide 2-3 years of protection per treatment, depending on the product used
  • Are administered by our trained and licensed arborists

When Should You Treat?

The best time to treat is before Emerald Ash Borer arrives or when it has been confirmed in your area but your trees are still healthy. Preventative treatments are far more effective than trying to save a tree already infested.

Signs of Emerald Ash Borer Infestation

If you notice any of these, call us immediately:

  • Thinning canopy or dying branches at the top of the tree
  • D-shaped exit holes in the bark
  • Splitting bark exposing winding tunnels underneath
  • Increased woodpecker activity on your ash trees
