The ChemjetŪ Tree Injector is the cost efficient tool to inject:- pesticides, fungicides,compounds which boosts the plants natural defence mechanism, fertilizers and trace elements. The true benefit of injecting the tree lies in utilising the trees natural circulatory system for transportation of the chemical. Therefore the ChemjetŪ Tree Injector is ideal for the control of Phytophthora's in trees causes root rot and associated conditions.

This avocado tree was suffering from Phytophthora (root rot). Note the brown tinge to the leaves. If left untreated this tree would die.

Other Factors:
Injection under too great a pressure can lead to cell damage, uplifting of the bark which may impair the sap flow and may also force the tree to accept chemical when in fact it is not ready to absorb it. The ChemjetŪ Injection system is not only low pressure - with the option of three spring gauges, ChemjetŪ Injectors provide the ability to adapt the pressure of the injection to suit specific tree species. ChemjetŪ will recommend the correct gauge for your requirement. To determine the correct quantity and concentration of chemical, it is recommended to follow manufacturers guidelines and your local advisory service. As a rule, a tree requires one 20ml injection per 1 metre diameter of `canopy cover'. This probably only applies for avocado trees in eastern Australia.
