Plant Diagnostics

One of the major reasons consumers initially contact an arborist is to determine the cause of a plant health problem or condition or to identify and treat a pest infestation. This is an area that Wood Acres arborists excel in due to the continual training they receive on the latest problems and diagnostic techniques.

The support our local arborists receive from the diagnostic facilities at the University of Maryland Extension allows us to service our clients in maintaining high quality plant material. It involves carefully and routinely observing plants and looking for early signs of infestation or problems with plant material. Correctly diagnosing the problem is also key to an TPM/IPM plant management approach.
