Tree & Plant Health Care Treatments
Targeted treatments for destructive insects such as Emerald Ash Borer (Moose Creek highly recommends treating high-value ash trees along the Front Range), Pine Bark / Ips beetles in pine and spruce, and seasonal foliar applications to control aphids, scales, plant bugs, Cooley spruce gall, and other damaging ornamental insects.
Disease Control
Tree & Plant Health Care Treatments
Disease Control
Trunk injections using fungicides and/or bactericides to help manage fire blight and other fungal or bacterial diseases affecting trees and ornamentals.
lawn care
Four to five seasonal applications of slow-release fertilizer, iron, micronutrients, soil amendments, and broadleaf weed control, strategically spaced every 6–8 weeks throughout the growing season to promote healthy, vibrant turf.
Targeted fungicide applications designed to prevent and manage common turfgrass diseases caused by fungal pathogens. Treatments are applied as needed throughout the growing season based on weather conditions, disease pressure, and turf health to reduce stress, improve recovery, and maintain a dense, healthy lawn.
Vegetation control:
Targeted applications in rock beds, mulch areas, and landscape cracks to effectively control unwanted grasses and weeds while maintaining clean, well-defined landscape areas.
