HAZARDOUS REMOVELS:

Trees have a natural growth curve. Eventually, trees reach their genetic potential and at some point are affected by a number of damaging factors. Trees or parts of trees may fall causing personal or property damage. To determine if a tree is hazardous, request a FREE ESTIMATE from Advanced Tree, Inc.

INSECT CONTROL:

INSECT CONTROL AND ITE TREATMENT ON TREES & SHRUBS:

Insect control on your property for plant health consists of a management program that includes a thorough inspection of your landscape by a professionally trained arborist, expert diagnosis and treatment, as well as careful monitoring. Insects and mites usually attack trees and shrubs that are in poor health and/or under stress. Therefore, your arborist's first priority is to restore the health of your trees and shrubs so that they can naturally resist insect and mite infestation. Our insect control philosophy is to use low impact methods and ingredients to minimize populations of insects and mites while maintaining environmental sensibility.insect control outer banks

The presence of some insects and mites can be harmless, but certain species may be detrimental and even cause trees and shrubs to die. Asian long-horned beetle, winter moth, inchworm, aphids, gypsy moth, canker worm, hemlock woolly adelaide and borers are some of the most common and harmful insects. Control of these species in the least intrusive manner is made possible by Advanced Tree’s technologically advanced scheduling system. It enables us to achieve insect control by treating each species on your property at the most advantageous time to ensure efficacy and environmental integrity.

Deer Tick Control Deer tick control is important for protecting your family and pets from exposure to Lime disease-infected ticks. This treatment is applied to the acetone areas and sometimes to the lawn areas of your landscape to provide an immediate reduction in the number of ticks on your property. The acetone is the boundary zone between lawn areas and wooded areas and is the preferred habitat of the deer tick. Control of tick population in this area of your yard is vital because according to published research, approximately 90% of deer ticks on a property will be found in the acetone areas. Advanced Tree advocates deer tick control treatments at the end of May/early June and again in September as a minimum, and monthly treatments during the following season as the maximum.

COMMON INSECT CONTROL PROBLEMS:

The most common insect infestations include hemlock woolly adelaide, aphids, winter moth, canker worm, gypsy moth, inch worm, and borers of many varieties.

Hemlock woolly adelgid is one of the most damaging insects at work in the northeast. This insect has two generations per year and is most active during cool weather. Hemlock woolly adelgid spread by wind and birds, and they are capable of killing mature stands of Hemlock within two growing seasons.

Aphids attack a wide range of plant species by removing the sap from leaves and stems. Insect control will help minimize feeding that may cause distortion of the foliage on your trees, choruses (yellowing) of leaves, and may promote the growth of sooty mold on the foliage, leading to the eventual decline of your specimens.

Borers such as lilac, dogwood, shot hole, rhododendron, bronze birch and elm bark beetle are damaging insects. Without plant health care and/or insect control services, they can cause extensive damage by feeding in the conductive tissues of the trunk and larger branches. This feeding damage cuts off the supply of nutrients and water to the canopy usually resulting in death of the tree.

STUMP GRINDING:

Enhancing your properties appearance is important. Our Stump Removal provides a less invasive and more cost efficient alternative to traditional stump removal. If you are tired of mowing around those aggravating stumps, we can help.

TREE PRUNNING & EVALUATION:

Advanced Tree, Inc. uses pruning methods such as Cosmetic and Hygienic to improve the natural shape of the trees. Dead, diseased, and broken wood can be removed at any time of the year. However, foe general pruning the best time is in late winter or early spring just before growth begins.

WOOD LOT MANAGMENT:

Woodlot management enhances the gunman cured, wooded areas of your property. These sections are thinned to remove dead, diseased, or undesirable trees. Woodlot management will open an overcrowded forest canopy. It also encourages forest regeneration, species diversity and the growth of desirable under story shrubs including maple leaf ciborium, spicebush, gray dogwood and winged euonymus.

TREE REMOVAL AND PRESERVATION IN YOUR WOODLOT:

Tree removal can alleviate unhealthy competition and open up beautiful vistas. Advanced Tree recommends preserving acorn and nut producing trees in your woodlot management plan, as they are an abundant source of food for forest fauna. Additionally, your feature trees may be pruned to remove dead and diseased wood. We advocate pruning or reducing the presence of Poison Ivy and Bittersweet Vines when they impair the ability of other species to develop. This tree service will ultimately prevent damage to feature trees and under story trees. The brush that results from woodlot management services is chipped within the woods and the bulky wood stacked in low rows. This enables the beneficial organic material to return to the forest floor, thereby maintaining the balance of nature on your property and providing essential nutrients for growth.

TREE ROOT REMOVAL AND STUMP REMOVAL:

Tree root removal, stump grinding and Advanced Tree’s other tree removal services are tailored to the specific needs of your landscape as well as your personal preferences and budget. In our woodlot management, pruning and cabling work, we utilize the guidelines and standards outlined by the American National Standards Institute’s A300 and Z133.1 documents. Our highly experienced field specialists enable us to consistently meet and exceed tree service industry standards in woodlot management and tree removal.
