Compacted soil significantly inhibits the growth of trees, plants, or shrubs. Belknap Tree and Plant uses a technique called Air Spading to loosen the soil around a tree or shrub to increase water and air permeability. Essential nutrients can then reach the tree or shrub’s deepest roots.
Our organic, proprietary Liquid Compost Extract (LCE) can also be applied or injected directly into tree root systems to enhance root and foliage growth. The nutrients increase the plant's resistance to pathogens, pests, and drought symptoms. LCE is only available in New Hampshire’s Lakes Region from Belknap Landscape. And it’s safe for to use around humans, pets, and near shorelines!
No matter how hard you try to achieve the most beautiful lawn, shrub, or tree, pests can ruin everything. Our plant health team has identified five key areas to successfully mitigate and control unwanted pests:
1. Correct identification
2. Pest and plant life cycle and biology
3. Identify the population
4. Appropriate pest management techniques (biological or chemical controls)
5. Monitor Results
Through tried and proven methods, we’ll work to eliminate detrimental insects that may be ruining your trees and shrubs.
