Protect Your Trees with EAB Treatment

Many Dayton, OH, residents love enjoying big, healthy, vibrant trees on their properties. Not only do these trees look great and provide shade, but they also add curb appeal that younger saplings just can’t match. (Watch any home-buying reality TV show, and you’ll find buyers in search of a property with mature trees.) However, what many Ohio homeowners don’t know is that without proper care, their sturdy trees may be susceptible to tree-destroying pests. Emerald ash borers are exotic beetles that like to prey on many Ohio trees, including ones in the Dayton area. Often, these borers—while no bigger than a penny—set up camp in the bark of your tree and cause damage before you even know it. While you might notice the warning signs, like splitting bark or woodpecker damage, you may not realize what’s happening until it’s too late. Your best line of defense against these insects is actually preventative tree care. Emerald ash borer treatment (also called EAB treatment) is a specialized service we offer at Lawn Plus LLC. This ash borer treatment works effectively to protect your trees (almost 98% effective with regular, bi-annual application). While effective at dealing with ash borers, our treatment also limits the environmental impact on your lawn, therefore keeping you, your family, and your pets safe. Plus, our EAB treatments last for up to two years, so you can keep those pests at bay. If you want to learn more about emerald ash borer treatment, contact our team at Lawn Plus at (937) 839-5296. We can provide you with a free quote on our ash borer treatment as well as any of our other lawn care services including aeration, fertilization, seeding, mosquito treatment, and more. Be sure to check out our services and frequently asked questions, and then schedule your EAB treatment today. photo credit: Emerald Ash Borer via photopin (license)
