Insects can harm your trees and shrubs in different ways. Some chew through leaves, while others weaken branches, feed under the bark, leave sticky residue, or add stress to plants that are already struggling. If you need tree insect control in Mound, Lake Minnetonka, or the west metro, Acer Tree Care offers targeted treatments based on what's really affecting your plants.
We start by looking at your tree or shrub, the visible damage, the plant species, and when the problem started. From there, you'll get a treatment plan that fits your property, not a one-size-fits-all spray.
Targeted Tree Pest Treatment Starts with the Right Diagnosis
Not every insect problem calls for the same solution. Aphids, Japanese beetles, emerald ash borer, and other pests all affect your plants differently, so we always start with a clear identification.
Our inspection-first approach to tree pest treatment means you get the right care for your trees and shrubs. Depending on the pest and how severe the problem is, we might recommend monitoring, ornamental spraying, systemic treatment, or another targeted plan. This practical approach supports integrated pest management for trees by focusing on the right treatment at the right time.
Insect Problems We Treat
Acer Tree Care treats many common pests that affect trees, shrubs, and ornamentals in Minnesota. Aphids can leave you with curled leaves, sticky honeydew, and sooty mold. Japanese beetle tree damage often shows up as chewed, lace-like leaves, especially on lindens, birch, crabapples, and other ornamentals.
Ash trees need especially prompt attention when emerald ash borer is a concern. EAB larvae feed beneath the bark and can interrupt the tree's ability to move water and nutrients. If you're looking for emerald ash borer treatment or ash tree treatment, an arborist will check the canopy, trunk, bark, and overall condition before recommending what makes the most sense.
Treatment Options Beyond Blanket Spraying
If you searched for "tree spraying near me," you might already be seeing signs of insect damage. Spraying can help with some ornamental pests, but it isn't always the right answer for every tree or shrub problem.
We'll identify the pest first, then talk through whether spraying, systemic treatment, or another option is the best fit. Your trees and shrubs get focused protection without unnecessary applications.
