Emerald ash borer continues to threaten ash trees in Franklin, Brentwood, and across Williamson County. Its larvae tunnel beneath the bark and cut off the flow of water and nutrients, and badly infested ash trees usually have to be removed.
A healthy ash does not have to be lost. Franklin Tree Service offers Emerald Ash Borer Treatment that protects trees still in good condition when applied on a regular schedule, preserving mature shade that would take decades to replace. Ash trees that are already in decline become brittle quickly, which makes removal more difficult the longer it waits.
Warning signs include thinning at the top of the crown, D-shaped exit holes in the bark, woodpecker damage, and sprouts along the lower trunk. An ISA Certified Arborist can confirm whether a tree is an ash, judge whether it is a good treatment candidate, and plan protection for the right application window. Late fall is a good time to identify ash trees before planning spring treatment.
