Dear Marty,
On April 1st, 2020 SilverDuck Tree Banding Services LLC will begin its TREE BAND REMOVAL service and will be monitoring numerous traps to determine when the Cankerworms are starting to hatch.
Once we confirm that the worms are active and feeding, we will start our TREE SPRAYING SERVICE immediately, as there is a short window in which spraying can effectively control worms. This usually starts within the first week of April.
Typically, tree spraying is effective for 4-5 weeks every year. Due to rain, we average 20-23 days of active spraying annually, so our schedule is very tight!
If you are planning on having your trees sprayed this year, please reply back to this email with an affirmative answer as soon as possible. Our clients will be added on a first come, first serve basis.
With over 500+ households scheduled for spraying, and a short period of time, we ask that you reply back to this email with a “YES PLEASE” as soon as you can. Our schedule fills up quickly every year, and inevitably, there are some disappointed customers who we simply were not able to spray. 
 
Some clients have elected to only use one method of cankerworm prevention and we have adjusted our process to facilitate that decision.
 
Our Tree Spraying prices are as follows:
  • $60.00 for the first tree/$30.00 each additional.
  • *Trees + Yard Package (all shrubs, flowers, gardens, etc) $100.00.
  • We will provide a Flat Rate for customers with large, wooded lots.
  • Ask about our "Neighborhood Bundle Package". It can save money and cover a larger area around your property by including the surrounding properties. The more properties sprayed the less each application will cost!
*The Yard Package can only be included with Tree Spraying. Yard Package is not a stand alone service.
Please note that no other tree care company in the Charlotte area has a tree spraying unit that can reach heights of 100+ feet. Our rig is custom built specifically for tall tree spraying. We know of no other company that can spray over 50 feet height. Keep in mind that cankerworms must ingest this bacteria in order fo it to kill them.

Customers having their trees sprayed will have their bands removed at the same time.
 
We use a 100% Organic spray solution containing water, soybean oil (as a sticking agent), and a bacteria called B.T.K. You can find information on this bacterium on our website. It is the same spray used by the City of Charlotte when they do aerial spraying. We apply a huge volume of this solution to your trees compared with spraying from a plane.
 
For those customers who DO NOT want their trees sprayed, you need not do anything. Your home will be on our removal schedule. Customers with locked or secured yards must inform us so that we can schedule your home for an exact date and time. 
 
Customers who have outstanding invoices will not be added to our route. We will not remove your bands.
 
If our team has already been to your area to remove bands, we will only come back to your home to remove the traps for a $40.00 service charge. Also, please note due to the volume of response and other factors you may not receive confirmation of your request before March 21st. If you have not received confirmation by March 22nd please follow up by either email or phone. Samantha@treebanding.com or 704-779-6476.
 
We thank you for your continued patronage, and look forward to a worm free spring!
 
Respectfully,
