3. Termite Treatment:
The Formosan Termites are one of the greatest enemies of the urban tree. These insects can infest your trees, and spread to wooden structures and even to your garden mulch. Damaged trees will often have areas of exposed wood that attract termites, allowing them to gain entry and further weaken already stressed trees.
Signs of termite infestation include: the presence of mud shelter tubes, swarmer termites, shedded wings or damaged wood. This evidence may be inside or around a tree.
Cost: $130 per tree
