Hemlock Treatment Services in Hendersonville, NC

In Hendersonville County, our hemlock trees hold an enchanting allure that elevates our landscape and leaves a lasting impression. But unfortunately, our hemlock trees are particularly prone to damaging invasive insects known as Hemlock Woolly Adelgid.

This tiny insect is barely visible to the human eye, but they have a slow and harmful impact on your tree’s health. The insects leave tiny white egg sacs at the base of needles and slowly reduce the health of the tree they’re laid on by stealing nutrients and water from the tree.

Signs You Need An Assessment

To protect your trees from this harmful insect, watch out for these telltale signs that your tree has been infected:

• Slow growth
• Dropping of needles
• Discoloured evergreen needles
• Small waxy, white sacs at the base of needles (sometimes described as looking like tiny snowballs or cotton balls)

It’s important not to underestimate the impact Hemlock Woolly Adelgid can have. Without treatment, the plant will die.

Prevention & Treatment Best Practices

This invasive creature easily spreads to hemlock trees from factors as unpreventable as the wind. To get ahead of the disastrous impacts of this tiny insect, it’s ideal to get a treatment done between mid-May to September.
