01. SERVICES

POISON IVY, POISON OAK, POISON SUMAC TREATMENT SERVICES:

Our poison ivy remediation services start with a phone call.  This is where we ask you to relay us valuable information in regards to your issue that you are having as well as your needs and wants.  From there we schedule a property inspection with one of our certified technicians.  We perform a walk through with every client to ensure that they receive an educational lesson on how to identify poison ivy as well as pointing out all of the areas that we see poison ivy on your property.  From there, we move forward with our treatment program.  Our treatment program for poison ivy remediation consists of the initial inspection, a selective herbicide application to all the areas discussed during the inspection, and a follow-up verification treatment 10-14 days after the initial treatment has been completed.  We perform the initial herbicide application the same day as the inspection (weather pending).  Our follow up process is crucial in ensuring that we have eliminated 100% of the poison ivy that was actively growing on your property at that time.  Keep in mind, poison ivy is a native plant to Michigan and a vital food source to birds in the winter.  Though we can eliminate 100% of the poison ivy that was actively growing, we cannot prevent seed germination.  This is why we recommend a yearly maintenance program, so you don’t have to worry about your poison ivy issue getting our of hand.

PLANT HEALTH CARE SERVICES

We quickly evolved to offer Plant Health Care Services for our clients because we saw the need for a science-based approach.  Many of the Plant Health Care service providers are simply sales machines without diving into the science behind what they are doing. They prescribe cover sprays that eliminate all insects and do a generalized fertilization program year after year.

 

Not us.

 

We only make professional recommendations based on the most recent scientific data that is available to us.  So you don’t have to worry when we make a recommendation that we have your best interest in mind.
