Emerald Borer
The Tree Doctor is in!
Are you worried about your tree's health? Have you noticed any unusual fungus's, spots, etc.?
Symptoms, such as discolored leaves, dead branches, or early leaf drop, can prompt a call to a local arborist. Sometimes the cause of concern is a minor problem that is easily explained and corrected. Other times, the problem is more complex, with several underlying causes and a remedy that requires treatments extending over several years.
Give us a call at: 920-740-9790 and we can assess your tree for your first free tree visit. We have an experienced and very educated Tree Health Care specialist who can assess the tree's condition and advise the best treatment. All plants are bedded in a common resource: the soil. The roots of trees, shrubs, turfgrass, and bedding plants intermingle and compete for water and nutrients. ... The care of each plant in a landscape can affect the health of every plant in that landscape.

Beware! Emerald Ash Borer Is In Our Area Now!
Jason's Tree Service was the first to spot Emerald Ash Borer(EAB) in the Fox Valley Area! You don't want to mess around or put off getting this looked at!
Emerald Ash Borer is an exotic beetle that was discovered in Southeastern Michigan near Detroit in the summer of 2002. The adult beetles nibble on ash foliage but cause little damage. It is the larvae (the immature stage) that feed on the inner bark of ash trees, disrupting the tree's ability to transport water and nutrients and kills them.
EAB has been predicted to wipe out 50% of Ash tree's in Wisconsin if not treated!

FYI: Firewood Regulations.
Moving firewood can put the trees at your destination at risk.
Firewood can harbor many different kinds of invasive pests and diseases that are harmful to Wisconsin's trees in both forest and urban settings. Gypsy moth, oak wilt, emerald ash borer and others hitchhike on firewood, making their way easily into previously unaffected, healthy areas. This is a serious threat to trees throughout the state. Although it is still legal to move firewood in certain areas, it is almost always a bad idea to do so. The one exception is Wisconsin certified firewood. Firewood from a vendor that is certified by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection has been processed to remove or destroy hitchhiking pests. The certification program is available to firewood manufacturers. Learn more about firewood certification and view a list of certified vendors. https://datcp.wi.gov/Pages/Programs_Services/FirewoodDealerCertification.aspx
If you have an EAB-infested tree that you would like to use as firewood, be aware that EAB can continue to emerge from the wood for two years after cutting. To avoid spreading EAB, split and leave the wood to age near where you cut the tree for two summers. After two years of drying, EAB that may have been within the wood will have emerged or died. The aged firewood poses little risk of introducing EAB and you may move it freely within the limits of the quarantine.
"II had concerns about my 50 year old ash tree that had been treated by others for emerald ash borer. Both Adam (who diagnosed the problem and quoted the treatment) and Terry (who did the treatment) were prompt, on time, thorough and friendly and wiling to look at my other trees. They are good people to deal with. I highly recommend Jason's tree service."
