			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Emerald ash borer (EAB) is a very serious problem that threatens all ash trees in the Midwest. As of 8/5/08 it has been found in Wisconsin and is extensive in northern Illinois. The million dollar question seems to be, &#8220;When should I start treatment if I want to protect an ash tree?&#8221;</p>
<p>One consistent fact is that whenever they have found EAB, they always say it has been there for 3 to 6 years. It is important to keep this in mind as you make your decisions.<br />
Another important point to remember &#8211; you have time to deal with this!</p>
<p>Read the <a href="http://www.healthytrees.com/_files/emerald_ash_borer.pdf" target="_blank">Fact Sheet on Emerald Ash Borer (EAB)</a> for more information on the threat to ash trees in Wisconsin.</p>
<p>A Certified or Board Certified Master Arborist can give you advice before you take removal, planting or treatment action. Contact <a href="http://healthytrees.com/staff.php">Wachtel&#8217;s experienced staff</a> for help dealing with the emerald ash borer threat to your ash trees.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Our people set us apart:</strong><br />
We have 3 Board Certified Master Arborists, 14 Certified Arborists and 1 Municipal Specialist on staff (most of any company in Wisconsin). Twenty of twenty-one Arborists have degrees. All told we have 4 Associate degrees, 18 Bachelors and 3 Masters. All together we have a combined experience of 381 years. Furthermore, we have 4 past-presidents of the Wisconsin Arborist Association on staff.  <a href="http://www.healthytrees.com/staff.php" target="_blank">Click here to check out our experienced staff</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Our work sets us apart:</strong><br />
All of our treatments are based on insect or disease life cycles for proper timing rather than a calendar based cover spray (spray everything) approach. Our approach limits spraying and preserves beneficial insects by focusing treatments at the time when control of an insect or disease can be most effective. This is part of an overall approach we use called Plant Health Care (PHC).</p>
