Gave us recommendations for our redwood in California despite them being in Boston. Definitely recommend!

Organic Skeeter Defeater Application Program Mosquitoes mid day seem to be getting worse these past few years in Arlington when I am gardening, never was an issue; my opinion ,my neighbors exposed compost pile is partly contributing to the population infestation. I have been a customer for 40 years with Boston Tree Preservation and last summer 2021 I decided to try the Organic Skeeter Defeater 6 application program. I was pleasantly surprised that this Organic Skeeter Defeater Application did help especially July 2021 which was a wet month . Only once did it rain right after the morning application and was not as effective until the next months application. When I spoke to the person who was applying this product and mention it had rained, if I had called the next day someone would have come back to retreat the property.

First, I love the name of the business. I cringe every time I hear a chain saw taking down a tree from my "tree-lined streets" neighborhood. And Peter is all about saving the trees! He is incredibly knowledgeable, efficient, and responsive. I sent pictures of my browning Arborvitae Trees and a Red Bud tree that was not thriving. He told me that if the tree was more than 50% dead, it was not going to make it - which was just the advice I was seeking but could not find the answer. As "tree doctors" who try to save trees, he told me since mine were beyond repair, that it was better to just buy new ones. I really, really appreciated the time he took to look at my pictures, talk to me, and give me definitive answers. Now I finally know what to do. I trust that any tree, lawn, bushes, or plants that CAN be saved and/or helped to prosper and thrive, Peter is undoubtedly the guy to do it. Thank you so much, Peter! :)

We have used Boston Tree Presevation to protect some favorite trees (insect control for hemlock and stewardia) and fertilizing our other trees. They are uniformly excellent. Recently I had a problem with a 40 year old indoor/outdoor potted citrus tree. They asked for photos and diagnosed it over the phone suggesting a remedy that I got for less than $20 from Amazon. Prior garden shop "experts" gave alternating advice of more expensive and useless chemicals. I highly recommend this firm.

Questions & Answers

I heard Spinosad kills bees, is that true?

It's all about timing. Though Spinosad has zero mammalian toxicity, if it is sprayed while the tree's flowers are in full bloom it can decrease the bee population. This is why we carefully time our applications and spray only while flowers are in their budding stage. This is effective for minimizing the population of unwanted pests before bees start their pollination process.

How can I tell the difference between Winter Moth and Gypsy Moth caterpillars?

Though both pests are common in Massachusetts, your trees are more likely to have a larger infestation of Winter Moth caterpillars. Winter Moth caterpillars are smooth and green, where as Gypsy Moth caterpillars are brown with long hairs. Both caterpillars can cause extensive damage to your trees and should be treated immediately. Learn more about our treatment options here: https://www.bostontreepreservation.com/spring-treatments

Does Organic really work?

Yes! We have spent the past 40 years developing sustainable proactive and reactive plant health care solutions that have revolutionized the tree care industry. Boston Tree Preservation’s aggressive approach to tree care and soil health actively encourages their wellbeing with organic programs specifically designed to promote and ensure tree, shrub and lawn good health. Healthy trees and landscape are more likely to resist diseases and insect pests. As with human health, preventative measures are always better. Using time proven techniques that include expert analysis and the appropriate combination of professional skills, services and environmentally friendly products, the health of your entire landscape can be improved and prolonged. Protecting your landscape with organic, proactive programs are more cost effective too than 911 reactive services administered after the damage has started. An organic, proactive approach benefits you, the trees, and the earth.

The health of our environment is of our utmost concern, therefore all of our products are OMRI-listed (Organic Materials Research Institute) and NOFA (Northeast Organic Farming Association) allowed. Many of our products are made in-house from organic materials. We take care to spray our products before blooms as to not disturb the bees and other pollinators. None of our products are harmful to humans, pets or wildlife, so you can feel good about protecting your trees without the use of harsh chemicals.
