We treat ash trees on City property by injecting either TreeAzin® (azadirachtin) or IMA-jet® (imidacloprid) directly into the tree.

These products are approved for use in Canada by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency. They will be applied by licensed pesticide applicators and in accordance with federally approved label directions.
