Dear Marty,
On Friday, October 20th, SilverDuck Tree Banding Services, LLC will start its 2018 tree banding process.
You are receiving this email because you have used our service in 2017 or have requested to be added to our schedule for this year.
We have over 22,000 trees to be banded in 2018 and our schedule is tight due to the weather and environmental factors. If you are looking to have your trees protected this year, we request that you reply to this email with a "Yes" or other affirmative answer TODAY! We will then add your home to our schedule.
It is important to understand that banding is a PREVENTITIVE type of pest control. Just because populations drop, does not mean that they can't explode from one year to the next. Cankerworms have a cyclical life cycle that spikes and drops about every 7 years. You can reference Regina or Saskatchewan Canada as current examples of how populations can overwhelm an area in just 1 years time.
We will not include your home unless we receive your approval email. You will receive a confirmation email.

Secured Yards and Marking Your Trees
Our crews will work 7 days a week from 7 AM - 7 PM. If you have trees in a gated or locked area, please let us know when you reply so we can organize a day and time where you will be able to leave the gates unlocked or we can meet you at your home. Otherwise you do not need to be home when the service is performed. If necessary (recommended for new customers) you can mark your trees with flagging tape that can be found at Home Depot or Lowes.

Two Stage Process
 For the majority of our clients we will band your trees in a 2 stage process:
Stage I Physical barrier (band/trap) attached to the trunk of the tree.
Stage II The application of the Tanglefoot (glue) to the trap. This process starts the week of Thanksgiving, and continues up through the conclusion of our service on December 23, 2018.
- Please note: all of our bands will use Tanglefoot. We are well stocked for this season.

All our bands are removed FREE OF CHARGE in April, 2019.
Current banding customers (2107) will receive a discounted rate on Spring Tree Spraying services.
Our prices are based on 3 different tree sizes;
Small (1-3 Feet around) = $20.00 (10% of the trees we service)
Regular (3-10 Feet around) = $40.00 (72% of the trees we service)
Large (11-13 Feet around) = $50.00 (10% of the trees we service)
Giant (14+ Feet around) = $60.00 (8% of the trees we service)
-
HOA's, Neighborhood Associations, and City municipalities receive flat rates per tree, as does any customer with 15+ trees.
We are excited to start our 22nd year of service, and will work hard to earn your business.
Sincerely,
|
