Removing a tree is not always the answer. Many insect and disease problems can be treated if they are caught in time. Vaughn Tree Care LLC offers trunk injections, soil injections, and pesticide applications to protect the trees you want to keep.
Trunk Injections
Trunk injection delivers the treatment directly into the tree, where it moves through the vascular system to the branches and leaves. Nothing is sprayed into the air, which makes it a good fit for yards with kids, pets, and gardens. Trunk injections are the most effective treatment for Emerald Ash Borer, which has been confirmed in Nebraska and is fatal to untreated ash trees.
Soil Injections
Soil injections place the product in the root zone, where the tree takes it up naturally. They are used for certain insect treatments and for fertilization that improves the health of stressed trees.
Pesticide Applications
When a spray application is the right tool, we apply it carefully and according to the label. Treatments are recommended by a certified arborist based on what is actually wrong with the tree, not guesswork.
