Prevent Emerald Ash Borer from Infecting Your Greater Toronto Area Trees

Emerald Ash Borer

The emerald ash borer (EAB) has killed millions of trees in south-western Ontario. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has already detected its presence within the cities of Toronto, Brampton, Mississauga and Oakville. All ash species are at risk. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency warns that the deadly beetle poses a major threat to urban and forested land. This has forced authorities to prohibit the movement of all ash tree wood and material in or out of southern Ontario.

Maple Hill Tree Services has over 30 years of experience in tree care. We are a qualified service provider for the application of TreeAzinTM. TreeAzinTM is a systemic bio-insecticide produced from the seeds of the Neem tree. TreeAzinTM is registered by the Ministry of the Environment as a class 4 pesticide or “least hazardous that is commercial 1” and is listed by the Organics Materials Review Institute for use in organic crops 2. We have participated in large projects with Halton District School Board and the Town of Oakville to inspect and treat their trees since 2008. We offer similar services for commercial, residential and municipal properties in the Greater Toronto Area. Our Certified Arborists will assess your trees for the presence of EAB, provide suitable protection, long term advice and recommendations.

Request a tree inspection to detect whether or not your Ash can be protected. 

Commercial properties will benefit from our expert Arborists’ Reports outlining management options and future considerations.
