Trunk Injection
Trunk injection is the most effective alternative to spraying or soil applied pesticides for tree insect or pest control. Arborjet’s trunk injection equipment injects formulations directly into the trunk where it is quickly taken up by the vascular system and distributed throughout the tree. With over 10 years of research and development, our trunk injection systems and formulations are proven to give the best results when protecting trees from pests.
Simple & Quick
The Arborjet drill-plug-inject method and application is quick.
Eco-Friendly
Unlike spraying or soil applications, Arborjet’s system injects directly into the tree, limiting any impact to your family, the applicator, and the environment around you.
Cost Effective
Equipment & formulation costs are much less costly than they use to be. Service providers can offer a program that is valuable to the homeowner and still very profitable for them.
