What is Deep Root Fertilization? 

Deep Root Fertilization is a professional arbor care treatment that injects nutrients, oxygen, and beneficial soil amendments directly into the tree’s active root zone. By delivering nutrients below compacted soil layers, this method ensures feeder roots receive what they need for sustained growth and resilience.


Dark brown soil, scattered small stones, twigs, and plant debris.

Why Trees Benefit from This Treatment

Trees growing in residential and commercial landscapes are frequently stressed by compacted soils, lawn competition, construction activity, drought, and nutrient depletion. Over time, these conditions weaken root systems and increase susceptibility to insects, disease, and decline.


  • Increases oxygen availability in compacted soils
  • Delivers nutrients directly to feeder roots
  • Promotes deeper, stronger, more stable root growth
  • Improves canopy density, color, and seasonal performance
  • Supports recovery from construction, drought, and environmental stress
  • Enhances long-term resistance to pests and disease

How Bug Off Tree Service Performs Deep Root Fertilization

Our team uses professional hydraulic injection equipment to apply nutrient solutions 6–12 inches below the soil surface around the tree’s drip line. This process aerates compacted soil, improves moisture infiltration, and distributes nutrients evenly throughout the active root zone.
