What are shrub and tree pests?
When it comes to tree and shrub pests, the answer to what they are is simple: unwelcome intruders on our Texas properties that cause damage to plant life. Pests like borers, scales, and aphids attack and damage the leaves, bark, and branches of trees, shrubs, and other landscaping. Though tiny in size, when these insects work together, the damage they cause in our yards is significant.

Where will I find shrub and tree pests?
Where exactly you will find tree and shrub pests depends on their exact species:
- Borers are insects that lay their eggs on or inside healthy trees. When the larvae hatch, they use the living tissues in the tree as a food source.
- Scales are sucking insects that feed on the leaves of a wide variety of trees and shrubs.
- Aphids feed on plants using special mouthparts that pierce a plant’s stems, leaves, and shoots.
