Tree Pests
If you have a sick tree, diseased tree, or dying tree the first step our arborists use to help your tree is to properly identify what insect, disease, or environmental condition is causing damage to your tree. If our arborist has identified a particular pest on your trees or shrubs you can use these fact sheets to learn more about the insect or disease pest and what needs to be done to help your plants.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Brandon Rowley
Professionalism
Great people and they always do a nice job. We have used Owen Tree Service for years for various things like tree trimming and lawn care.
Dean Hartman - Berrien County Drain Commission
Owen Tree Service provided a great value and service to our community. They helped us complete a difficult task of approximately 50 miles of needed treatment almost seamlessly. They were very easy to work with, followed and complimented our directive well. The owners along the areas that were serviced, passed on very nice regards for their team. We were very impressed with Owen Tree Service (as well as the community) and look forward to using their services again this coming year and beyond.

Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism, Value
We are very happy with the work they did. We had a large birch tree trimmed that had power lines on each side. There were 4 workers and they worked well together as a team to get the job done. They cleaned up the yard around the tree and did a professional job. They also asked us if we liked it before they left. We would highly recommend Owen Tree Service!

I hired Owen to do a tree removal and some pruning for me. Extremely happy with the care they used on my property. I am also using them for my lawn fertilization this year. Arborist seems very knowledgeable.

Responsiveness, Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism, Value
The folks at Owen Tree Service took such good care of my family. We had a massive tree fall on our house and cars, completely upending our lives, and Dave Kidd, Kay Sicheneder, and their whole crew working on it not only did a great job evaluating and removing, but also spent a good deal of time chatting with us, consoling us, offering advice, and generally putting our minds at ease. I sincerely appreciated everything they did for us and would highly recommend them if you’re looking for a good tree service. I can’t thank them enough.
