Tree health care services

Our tree management goal is to keep your trees healthy and protected from diseases and insect attacks. Drought, heat, and other stresses make trees vulnerable. Even healthy trees are susceptible to pests when populations reach high numbers. Preventive care and spraying is the best defense for your most valuable trees. Deep root watering and deep root fertilization treatments boost your trees’ health so they are better able to naturally fight off harmful insects.

Why preventive care

A beetle the size of a rice grain can take a tree you spent years caring for

Before starting SprayTech, our team spent more than 10 years in the environmental horticulture industry. We watched customers invest real money in pruning and fertilizing, only to lose entire trees to something as tiny as an Ips or mountain pine beetle.

We knew that with the right information it was possible to save trees and protect local ecosystems. So we made preventive tree spraying and noxious weed control the focus of the business, became licensed in those areas, and committed to continually updating our knowledge.

We rely on SprayTech every year to spray our trees against mountain pine, Ips beetle, and other tree diseases. We have not lost a tree on our property yet.

Weed management

The right method depends on the weed and the ground it is growing in

A pasture full of musk thistle, a gravel lot and a front lawn need different approaches. Here is how the four options in a SprayTech weed management plan compare.

Comparison of manual, chemical, biological and combined weed control
MethodWhat it involvesWhere it tends to fitThings to know
ManualPhysically removing weeds by pulling, digging or cutting.Small, isolated patches and areas near plants you want to protect.Labor intensive on large acreage, and weeds with deep roots can return.
ChemicalApplying herbicide selected for the target weed and site.Established infestations, larger fields, rangeland and bare ground.Product and timing matter. Application is regulated in Colorado and should be done by licensed applicators.
BiologicalUsing natural enemies of a weed, such as insects, to suppress it over time.Large or hard to reach infestations where long-term suppression is the goal.Works gradually and is aimed at reducing a population, not wiping it out quickly.
CombinationPairing two or more of the methods above in one plan.Most real properties. Our management plans often use more than one method.We assess your property first, then recommend the mix that fits the infestation.

Why noxious weeds matter. Noxious weeds are invasive plants that crowd out native vegetation and forage. Treating them is part of being a good neighbor, since seed from an untreated field does not stay put. See our fields and noxious weed control page for the types of land we treat.

Deep root care

Stronger roots, better defenses

A well watered, well fed tree is better able to fight off insects on its own. These two services support the spraying program from underground.

Deep root watering

Drought and heat are two of the biggest stresses on Front Range trees. Deep root watering delivers water down to the root zone during dry periods, when surface watering and rain are not reaching it.

Deep root fertilization

Deep root fertilization places nutrients where roots can use them. Paired with watering, it is one of the ways we help trees stay healthy enough to resist insect attacks.

What SprayTech customers say

Our token ash in the front of the house looks much healthier than all the other ashes on our street.

Paula B., deep root watering and fertilization customer

  • The pines on the property we bought were infested with beetles. After removing all the dead trees we decided we need to prevent any further loss. We have been spraying for beetles twice a year since then with the help from SprayTech. We are very happy with the prices especially since we have over 80 trees.

  • SprayTech was the only company who returned our phone call about treating our field for weeds. It was middle of the summer and we couldn't get hold of anybody. We are very happy with the service and highly recommend it.
