There are many insect and disease pests of trees in Massachusetts, some more damaging than others. This picture guide is designed to help you identify what pests may be infesting your trees and shrubs, and what your options are.
There are many treatment options today, ranging from traditional foliar sprays, to soil treatments, to systemic trunk injections. Consulting a Mayer Tree Service certified arborist could put your landscape on the path to being healthy and sustainable.
In addition to managing an insect or disease issue, tree health is always another consideration. Weak and stressed trees are usually more vulnerable to attacks, so maintaining your tree's health and vigor is sometimes the most critical, and often overlooked, treatment plan.

Consulting a certified arborist is always a good idea when you want to protect your valuable landscape trees, and Mayer Tree Service prides itself on proper tree care and tree preservation. A consultation is always free, and might mean the difference between a healthy, structurally sound tree and a dying or hazardous tree.
