Tree, Shrub and Plant Spraying
Oftentimes, when a specific or persistent pest is present, a direct application of a non-toxic spray is the best remedy. Foliar spraying of liquid fertilizer, compost tea, plant wash, and other solutions are other forms of spraying we often suggest for the whole garden and landscape. We use state-of-the-art sprayers which allow us to spray very thoroughly, and accurately, maximizing the effectiveness, and efficiency of the treatment.
