Soil Compaction of Urban Trees

Here is an example of a tree suffering from serious pedestrian traffic over its root zone. The soil is so compacted that water and nutrients just wash off into the street. The tree is so weak that it is now infested with scale insects, and is in serious decline. If your trees suffer from high traffic, tightly planted root zones, or insect infestation, give Shrub Doctor a call. We will come out and find a solution that best fits your tree’s needs.
