Deadwooding is the practice of removing dead branches out of otherwise healthy trees. This should be done every 3 years on older trees or trees under stress. Often new home construction damages or removes the root structure from existing trees. When the roots can no longer sustain branch development deadwood begins to appear. Large branches can drop out of a tree during a wind storm or sometimes in the dead calm of a summer day. Without warning they are headed to the ground and anything in their way is vulnerable. Material items can be replaced, but children or grand children should not be exposed to that risk.

Maxwell’s make every attempt to be good stewards of our environment. Towards that endeavor we use a tree injection system to direct product treatments right to the target pest. In the case of insect control, the products are transported by the trees vascular system right to the very leaves that the insects will attack. With defenses in place, the insects are killed after ingesting a small amount of the product.

We find that this method of treatment targets the specific pest more accurately, shields the product from non target pests, and provides a longer effective treatment in the tree. Fertilizer and trace elements can also be injected. During construction around a tree, roots can become served from the tree, or pavement surfaces are laid on top of the roots. Injection into the base of the tree can still provide the necessary nutriments to help the growth of these trees.
