Tree Insects & Disease Management
Proactive monitoring of tree pests and diseases is key
What begins as a small issue can turn into a major problem that threatens your property. Left unchecked, insects and tree diseases can quickly turn your tree and shrub assets into liabilities.
What you can expect from Davey’s tree insect and disease management
As a licensed, professional tree service, your local Davey team will periodically monitor your trees for some of these common signs of an infestation or disease thinning canopy, undersized or discolored leaves, sawdust-like material, and small holes in tree bark.
And these are just a few of the signs your arborists will look out for!
Once there is a diagnosis, your arborist will provide treatment and/or management options to restore your green assets back to good health.

How to identify and Treat Fall Tree Fungus
If you see an unusual mark or color on leaves, it could be a tree fungus. By identifying tree fungus early, you can seek timely treatment and save your tree.
Common signs of tree fungus include:
- Mangled, curling leaves with brown spots along the veins
- Leaves with olive-green spots that later become pale and fall prematurely
- White or gray spots on contorted leaves

Common Pests in Your Area
Pests and tree diseases are a problem nationwide, but certain areas are more susceptible to insects and diseases, like Emerald Ash Borer, than other regions.
Depending on the stage of infestation, it easily can be missed if your trees aren't regularly being monitored by a professional arborist.
Preventative tree care is key and can help catch these insects before an infestation occurs.
Hiring a certified arborist is important to control and prevent these threatening critters.
