Emerald ash borer has been spreading steadily through Virginia, and summer is when the damage becomes most visible on ash trees across Culpeper County and Northern Virginia. If you have ash trees on your property, right now is the time to have them evaluated by a certified arborist.
Signs of infestation include S-shaped galleries under the bark, D-shaped exit holes roughly the size of a pencil tip, thinning or dying canopy starting at the top, and increased woodpecker activity on the trunk. Once a tree is heavily infested, removal is often the only safe option — but early-stage trees may be candidates for treatment to slow progression and extend the tree's life.
Our ISA-certified arborists provide thorough tree health evaluations and honest assessments. We'll tell you exactly what you're dealing with and what your options are, with no pressure and no guesswork. If removal is needed, we handle it safely and completely, with all debris recycled on site.

Photo of an ash tree removal in progress, or a close-up showing visible EAB damage such as woodpecker scarring, D-shaped exit holes, or bark damage. If a job photo isn't available, a before/after of an ash tree removal with a clean yard afterward is a strong alternative. Avoid generic insect stock photos.
