ArborGuard
ArborCare is committed to caring for trees, people… and the environment. Our simplified approach, called the ArborGuard program, focuses on preventive care for trees and shrubs. Accurate diagnosis, timely intervention, and environmentally friendly methods and materials, is “the green approach” to maintaining a safe, healthy and beautiful landscape.
Reminder: A healthy plant is good for the environment!
HAVE A PLAN – The benefits to the environment are greatly enhanced when a tree and shrub care program emphasizes prevention thru routine inspections and timely intervention.
EARLY DETECTION – Identifying the source of plant stress and managing a disease or insect problem “early” will improve plant health and enhance the beauty and longevity of the trees and shrubs. “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”.
BE PRECISE – Solutions come from treating problems, not symptoms. Once a disease or insect is identified, determine the threshold level that will require treatment. Avoid harming beneficial insects - nature's way to manage pests in the garden!
STAY CURRENT – New methods and materials are routinely being developed to provide alternative treatments in a “green” friendly manner. Protecting beneficial insects while suppressing harmful pests is critical.
