Pine tree removal can be dangerous at times. If you have never removed a pine tree before then take precaution and safety for your self and others. Pines grow tall and can easily be judged wrong and end up not in the place you expected. Houston's pine tree removal service offers low prices with experience tree cutting crews so that your tree job will get done with a quickness and a price you can afford. Learn about our pine tree spraying services below and how preventive spraying can help reduce the chance of pine beetle infestation.

Using an preventive spray is applied to the trunk of your pine tree from the ground up to a height of about (30) feet where the trunk narrows to 6'' inches, whichever comes first. If a tree trunk narrows to (6) inches at a height of (22) feet, only the lower 22 feet of trunk need spraying. In contrast, if another tree narrows to 6 inches at a height of (54) feet, only the lower (30) feet of trunk needs spraying. Spraying should wet the bark, but only to the point of run-off. To adequately spray a typical, large pine takes about (2-4) gallons of spray mixture. The entire circumference must be treated. Pine foliage and branches under 6" in diameter do not need to be sprayed. Spraying should be done with an eye on the weather. Avoid excessively windy or freezing days. At least two hours of rain-free weather should follow the application to allow proper drying.

Use formulations that are labeled for bark beetle prevention and specifically designed for use on trees. Usually these contain additives called “stickers” which allow better adherence to bark. It is a good idea to identify or “mark” trees which have been sprayed. Placing a spot of spray paint at the base of treated trees is one method. An occasional problem which occurs in carbarly-sprayed trees is spider mite build-up. Spider mites are tiny spider relatives that discolor needles in the process of feeding. A rule of thumb is to add permethrin every third year of consecutive bark beetle preventive spraying. Houston Tree Removal Service can help you spray your pine trees and help you decide what pine needs to be cut down or trimmed back.
