Emerald Ash Borer can be treated all summer long with ArborSystems Wedgle Direct-Inject Tree Injection System and Boxer Insecticide-Miticide for two-year control.
“Unlike other treatment methods that have to be done in the spring, Boxer Insecticide used with the Wedgle can be applied until six weeks before the first frost,” said Chip Doolittle, president of ArborSystems in Omaha, NE. “Trunk injections using our no drilling method and advanced technology for tree treatment are effective anytime the tree is actively growing so the product is translocated with the sap.”
The Wedgle is a no-drill tree treatment system — an easy, fast and tree-friendly way to treat almost any tree in five minutes or less. It is the only tree trunk injection application method that does not require a drilled hole and, therefore, no drilling damage to the tree. Drilling of large holes on a yearly or semi-yearly basis have proven to be harmful to the tree.
Boxer Insecticide-Miticide, for application by arborists, urban foresters and tree care professionals, is available in 120 ml and 1000 ml Quick-Connect Chemical Packs. It is for the control of mature and immature insect and mite pests of deciduous and coniferous trees and palm trees including those growing in residential and commercial landscapes, parks, plantations, seed orchards and forested sites in private, municipal, state, tribal and national areas. Boxer contains the active ingredient Emamectin Benzoate and is formulated to translocate in the tree’s vascular system when injected. It must be placed into active sapwood and will actively control pests for up to two years. For more information, click here.
