Trusted Vegetation Management

Weeds are plants that are undesirable in a certain location and invasive weeds are plants that are non-native to an area, can quickly take over, and negatively impact native plant species, wildlife, and ecosystems. These weeds aggressively compete with trees, shrubs, and other native vegetation for space and resources, which can choke out native vegetation, reduce biodiversity, and destroy healthy environments. Our vegetation management program will help you control unwanted invasive vegetation on your property before it causes issues such as slowing/restricting native vegetation growth or becoming hosts for other pests.

At Backwoods Resources, we would like to work with you and/or your company in order to determine the most effective vegetation management and integrated pest management (IPM) plan to help control your vegetation on site while minimizing negative environmental impacts. There are a vast number of methods that can be utilized to help control vegetation, including chemically (spraying), mechanically (mowing, discing, tilling, and mulching), culturally (seeding desirable plants), and manually (hand picking). However, the ideal choice is prevention before weeds enter or take over a location. Planning a safe and effective management program is a process that must include many considerations, which is why we are here to provide you with the proper assistance.

Our Vegetation Management Program (IPM) Includes

Prevention – promote health ecosystems, inhibit invasive growth
Identification – presence of weed species, knowledge on species life cycle
Monitoring – visual inspections, sampling (counts/measurements), recordings
Thresholds – injury and action thresholds, timing requirements for treatments

Treatments – control method(s) used based on data collected, regulations, environmental protection, and treatment quality & cost
Evaluation – monitor treatment success, modify/improve as needed
Customization – have equipment and treatment options to suit any site (remote, large facilities, small driveway, etc.)
Efficiency/Effectively – large fleet of equipment and over 75 qualified employees
