Not every insect causes serious damage, but some can weaken trees and shrubs before the problem is easy to spot. Throughout Colorado Springs, aphids, spider mites, scale insects, and other common pests become active as temperatures rise, feeding on leaves, stems, and new growth. If left untreated, those populations can spread quickly and place unnecessary stress on otherwise healthy landscape plants.
Routine inspections help identify insect activity before it spreads across the property. Instead of applying the same treatment every time, we evaluate the insects present, the condition of the affected plants, and the time of year before recommending a solution. If we find insects that tunnel beneath the bark, we may recommend
commercial boring insect protection to help prevent more serious damage to valuable landscape trees. If you're noticing insect activity on your property, contact Jrick Lawn and Tree for a free estimate. We'll inspect the landscape, explain what we're finding, and recommend the treatment that best fits your property.
