Welcome to Arbor Doctor LLC!
Our team will provide you with landscape and tree care solutions in Greater Cincinnati, Southwest Ohio, Northern Kentucky, and Southeast Indiana.
Unlike pesticide-centric plant health care programs, our organic nutrients are healthy for your plants. The nutrients thicken the cell walls to help the plants defend against insect attacks and be as resistant as possible to disease. Pesticides may still be utilized, but only in a targeted, limited fashion. We use pesticides which are low or no toxicity whenever possible.
