Keeping Trees Healthy
Our plant health care services are designed with the well-being and long-term health of your trees in mind. Our methods help preserve beneficial insects and keep diseases under control through the use of careful plant health care services and management using trunk and soil injections and other methods. At Wachtel, we place a high value on the science of tree and shrub care. We treat what is needed based on insect and disease life cycles using narrowly focused and targeted applications.
Providing plant health care services doesn’t just mean saving your plant after you’ve noticed something is wrong, it is about maintaining the plants before problems begin to arise. Often times if a plant is too sick, it is much more difficult (and expensive) to nurse your tree or plant back to health. Quick check-ups from our Certified Arborists are the most efficient way to ensure your plants live a long and healthy life and give your Wisconsin home the best curb appeal possible.
- Soil systemic insecticides for insect control
- Spray programs based on insect life and tree disease cycles

Signs of a Sick Tree
Certified arborists at Wachtel Tree Science recommend inspecting your trees each season. If you begin to notice bark loss, discolored or falling leaves, fungus, or your tree just doesn't look like it used to, this is a sign of a sick tree. There are a number of different treatments for sick trees based on the disease and species of tree.
Tree and Shrub Care: Problem Diagnosis
Our Certified Arborists provide thorough health assessments to identify and diagnose plant health issues. Whether your trees and shrubs need a treatment to keep harmful pests away or they need help with soil deficiencies or disease control, Wachtel Tree Science's knowledgeable experts will develop a treatment plan specific to your property and trees to bring your sick tree back to its full potential.
