Compost Tea
Compost tea is a liquid extract produced by diluting compost with water. The extract contains a variety of organisms including bacteria, fungi, protozoa and nematodes that are effective in treating pathogens associated with foliar and fruit diseases. Compost tea also contains soluble nutrients which supplies the plant with an organic fertilization treatment at the time of application.

Tree Specialists monitors the quality of its compost tea brewing operation through a process called "Soil Foodweb testing" which allows us to make adjustments in the microbiology in the compost tea for increased efficacy against the targeted landscape pest.

Depending on the situation, compost tea can be applied by a variety of methods including foliar, soil drenching or by deep root soil injection.
