As the last of the leaves fall, it’s time to consider dormant pruning.

With less active sap flow and no leaves to block visibility, arborists can see structure clearly to prune efficiently and minimize stress to the plant.
Pruning doesn’t harm a tree when done properly- it promotes health, balance, and vigor.

🌳 The key is timing and technique.

Deer are adaptive browsers, meaning they eat a variety of leaves, twigs, and buds depending on the season.

In late fall, as natural foliage lessens, your landscape becomes their buffet. Deer especially crave high-protein new growth and soft bark, of which there is plenty in most regions due to the warm fall temperatures. We recommend treatment now to change those feeding habits - our repellents, scent-based deterrents, and patented DeerTech system can help.

Act now, and you’ll protect next spring’s growth before the damage begins.

As days shorten and temperatures drop, your trees and shrubs begin to enter their version of hibernation– dormancy.

During this period, growth slows dramatically as plants conserve energy and protect tissues from freezing. Leaves stop photosynthesis, sugars concentrate in cells to prevent ice formation, and buds harden to prepare for spring.

Signs of a healthy transition to dormancy: color changes, leaf drop, and slowed growth.

Dormancy is nature’s strategy for survival. When your landscape rests, it’s actually regenerating.🌱

If you’ve noticed silky webs draped over branch tips this season, your trees might be hosting an infectious worm.

Fall webworm (Hyphantria cunea) creates the webs to feed on the leaves of more than 80 tree and shrub species. Repeated infestations can weaken trees and make them more vulnerable to other stressors.

The key is timely action:
🧹 Remove or prune small nests before they spread
✂️ Tear open webs to let natural predators do their work
💧 Apply targeted treatments before the season ends

A little attention now can mean a stronger, healthier tree when spring returns.
