Just a quick heads up.
Due to high temps this spring and low rainfall, our oaks are being attacked early and heavily.
This year alone we have serviced over 1200 oaks in our area. Last year we did 1000 all together. Didn't lose one.
We do a combo spray/inject preventative applications.
No pesticides.

DANGER !!! These will take you OUT !!!...
Local and Native !!!

Imagine a pinecone the size of a chihuahua and as heavy as a bowling ball. The coulter pine (Pinus coulteri), a conifer native to parts of North America, including California and Mexico, is the tree responsible for producing these massive pinecones, contrary to what many might assume. Esteemed by foresters and loggers, this tree has earned the ominous nickname “the widowmaker” due to tragic incidents involving people killed by its falling pinecones. Weighing up to 11 pounds (5 kg), this species produces some of the largest pinecones found anywhere on Earth.

I started Koala Tree Care in Descanso in 1985 after 5yrs with USFS and CDF. We're turning 40 yrs old this year and I'd like to personally thank this community for your continued support. We are as busy as we've ever been.
1000s of trees under our care.
Still taking pride in what we do.
