Why TreeMendus is Utah’s Most Prepared EAB Prevention Expert

As EAB approaches Utah from surrounding states, TreeMendus Arbor Care is the state’s most prepared consulting arborist team for this unprecedented threat. When EAB reaches Utah, we’re not just losing individual trees—we’re watching an entire species go extinct in our lifetime. This makes Utah’s EAB threat unlike anything we’ve faced before.

TreeMendus Arbor Care works directly with the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food as part of the EAB task force, preparing for this pest’s arrival while others remain unaware of the threat. For years we’ve studied EAB management in affected states, developed Utah-specific prevention protocols, and established treatment supply chains while other tree services were unaware of the coming crisis.

For years we’ve studied EAB management in affected states, developed Utah-specific prevention protocols, and established treatment supply chains while other tree services were unaware of the coming crisis.

Utah property owners have an immediate decision to make: start prevention treatment now or lose their ash trees in 2-4 years. EAB has killed over 50 million trees across North America with devastating consistency and no ash tree survives without treatment. The difference between communities that preserved their ash trees and those that lost them entirely came down to one factor: how quickly they started prevention programs after detection.

Our solution is proactive protection. We provide comprehensive ash tree assessment, risk-based treatment prioritization and proven systemic insecticide protocols that offer near perfect protection when applied before infestation. This “prevention over reaction” approach has allowed us to prepare Utah’s most valuable properties for EAB’s arrival while building relationships with discerning owners who value expertise over emergency responses.

We’re craftsmen, not just tree services. This isn’t about making money—it’s about preserving Utah’s canopy with the same passion you’d protect your family. We don’t just apply chemicals; we become stewards of your trees. Our specialized EAB knowledge and education-first consulting make us the clear choice for Utah’s most valuable ash tree populations.

Our 3-Step EAB Protection Process

Step 1: Ash Tree Assessment

Our ISA certified arborist will conduct a thorough evaluation of all ash trees on your property, documenting species, health status, size and location to develop a protection strategy. We’ll perform basic diagnostic techniques on as many trees as we can – not just the ones you’re worried about, because a green tree doesn’t tell us everything about its health.

Step 2: Risk Analysis & Education

You’ll spend a full hour learning about EAB biology, Utah’s timeline, and tree physiology specific to your property. Bring a notebook—this isn’t a sales pitch, it’s a masterclass in tree care. We’ll explain why your maintenance practices matter more than any treatment we provide, plus give you cost analysis comparing prevention to removal and replacement expenses.

Step 3: Customized Protection Plan

You’ll receive a detailed management strategy with treatment schedules prioritized by tree value and budget. For large estates, we help you focus resources on your most important specimens while planning long-term canopy management. Not every ash tree needs immediate treatment—we’ll tell you the truth about what can be saved and what’s most strategic for your property.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Emerald Ash Borer so bad compared to other tree pests?

EAB larvae bore through ash trees’ vascular system completely disrupting water and nutrient flow. Unlike other pests that may weaken trees over years EAB kills healthy ash trees in 2-4 years with near perfect consistency. EAB not only kills trees quick but they also compromise the structural integrity of the wood creating extremely hazardous situations for homeowners and the general public. No North American ash species has natural resistance.

Prevention treatment with emamectin benzoate is near perfect when applied before EAB infestation. Treatment should start immediately when EAB is detected in surrounding areas—waiting for local detection means it’s already too late.

Our full assessment includes ash tree identification and mapping, individual tree health evaluation, treatment priority ranking based on tree value and location, cost analysis comparing prevention to removal/replacement and customized protection scheduling for your property.

Prevention treatment is $15-25 per inch of trunk diameter every 2-3 years. A 20 inch ash tree costs $400-500 for prevention versus $5,000+ for removal and replacement making prevention 90% less expensive than losing the tree.

Treatment success depends on infestation severity. Early stage infestations may respond to intensive treatment but success rates drop dramatically once symptoms appear. Prevention before infestation is far more effective and cost efficient than treating infected trees.

We help prioritize treatment based on tree value, health and strategic importance to your property. Not every ash tree needs immediate treatment—we develop phased protection plans that focus resources on your most valuable specimens while planning long term canopy management strategies.

People think trimming makes trees healthy. Trimming does nothing for tree health—sometimes it actually harms the tree. Real tree health starts with proper watering at the drip line, not the trunk, and feeding the soil, not just the tree.
