These are living organisms or extracts from living things that can either help protect plants from disease or invigorate growth. They include powdered live forms of mycorrhizal fungi (ecto- and endo-), beneficial fungi (Gliocladium, Tricoderma), and root-colonizing bacteria (Streptomycetes, Bacillus, Pseudomonas). They also include such things as yucca extracts (wetting agent), kelp, humates, protein hydrolysates, and glutens which provide slow release forms of nitrogen. Certain pests can be controlled with Neem oil, a broad spectrum insecticide derived from oil of Neem tree seeds, chili pepper spray and garlic tea. Artistic Arborist is going main stream with these items as safe, reliable and money saving alternatives to conventional pesticide and ag chemical treatments. Give them a try.

Artistic Arborist will soon be offering new lines of natural "organic" chemicals to green industry professionals. These environmentally friendly pest control agents are being requested by more by end users. Our selection will complement the conventional chemicals we now carry.
