Are you tired of the piles of Sweet Gum seeds that gather around your trees or the thousands of acorns that drop from your Oaks each year? A fruit reducing spray or injection can severely diminish the total amount of fruit produced that calendar year. The key to this procedure is to administer the reducer when the tree starts to break flower in early spring. Once the tree has matured through the flower stage, the treatment is no longer effective.

Fruit reducers will also work on a multitude of tree species including Osage Orange, Catalpa, Cottonwood, Redbud, Crabapple, Pear and a host of other fruit bearing trees. Certain tree varieties work better with a fruit reducer injection while others can be sprayed. Your Certified Arborist can determine which treatment is best for your trees. Contact your local Arbor Masters® to learn how we can help reduce or eliminate the annoying fruit and seeds from your fruit bearing trees.
