Certified Arborists in Austin, TX, Wilder Tree Company, Introduces Microbial Soil Conditioning to Enhance Tree Health
Wilder Tree Company introduces microbial soil conditioning to harness the power of beneficial microorganisms for eco-friendly arboriculture.
Austin, TX, Aug. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Microbial soil conditioning uses bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms to improve soil health and fertility. These microbes decompose organic matter, cycle nutrients, and enhance soil structure to heighten biological activity in the soil and impact tree health. Wilder Tree Company’s Arborists in Austin TX recognize the crucial link between trees and soil to offer microbial soil conditioning services that ensure a fertile environment for trees.
By introducing this service, the company seeks to harness the power of beneficial microorganisms to revolutionize tree vitality and lead the way in innovative and eco-friendly arboriculture. The tailored nutrition programs cater to trees’ needs, tackling root compaction, nutrient imbalances, and pest issues.
Property owners should consider tree and plant healthcare with microbial soil conditioning after construction/tree planting (soil disturbance depletes nutrients) or when trees in waterlogged soil need more oxygen. Additionally, high traffic and pollution can stress trees and older trees often need a nutritional boost to maintain their structural and aesthetic value.
Wilder Tree Company implements microbial soil conditioning using compost, compost teas, and commercial inoculants to kickstart the process. The team deeply understands local flora and soil conditions and creates custom deep-root fertilization programs for each tree using proprietary blends and advanced injection technology. This ensures that nutrients are delivered precisely where needed, fostering a resilient root system and a thriving canopy.
Property owners can unlock essential nutrient uptake by entrusting Tree & Plant healthcare to Wilder Tree Company. Before conditioning the soil, the arborists assess tree health to provide a tailored approach and employ sustainable practices. The team then improves the soil health, creating an ideal environment for tree growth.
Beyond microbial soil conditioning, Wilder Tree Company helps with all aspects of tree management and care, maintaining tree health, beauty, and safety through tree planting, pruning, disease diagnosis, and removal. With specialized knowledge in arboriculture, the team offers full-service solutions using tree care practices and tools generalists cannot match.
Wilder Tree Company adheres to high industry standards by employing fully licensed professionals with the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) certifications. The team ensures informed/ethical tree care practices and understands the art and science of tree health.
“A bad storm recently took down a giant limb from one of our trees. Wilder Tree Company came out the very next day to remove it. Their team worked quickly and efficiently to get things taken care of. The price was in line with what I expected…They even raked up our front lawn afterward to ensure everything looked nice…” Bee, Satisfied Client.

Austin had a particularly itchy and drippy cedar fever season to start the year. Many winter days, from late December into February, had high or very high ashe juniper (aka cedar) pollen counts.
Central Texas has a year-round allergy season with mold popping up at any time. For the more traditional spring and fall allergy seasons, forecasters at AccuWeather are predicting some of the allergens across the country will be worse this year than average.
Texas, though, is a different story.
For grass allergies, which happen now through September, AccuWeather estimates Austin will have an average season. However, just west of the Interstate 35 corridor in the Hill Country to almost El Paso, that season is expected to be worse than normal.
“Texas may experience above-average grass pollen for a few weeks,” AccuWeather’s allergy report said, “though the season could be shorter-lived compared to northern areas.”
It all depends on the weather
How much rain we get in the next six months and the perennial Texas heat will all affect the growing season for grasses and weeds, as well as the amount of pollen trees produce. The Farmers’ Almanac and the Old Farmers Almanac are both predicting a wetter and warmer spring.
Rain helps plants grow, which can increase pollen production over time. However, rainfall during allergy season can also bring temporary relief by washing pollen out of the air. That’s what we’re expecting this weekend, with our first meaningful rain chance in nearly three weeks. Tree and weed pollen levels might briefly drop, but mold could spike because it thrives in damp, humid weather.
If spring continues with excessive heat like we saw in February, it could limit the growth of some plants and trees. Extreme heat can reduce how much they grow, and how much pollen they produce. On the other hand, if we get a healthy balance of rain and only slightly above-normal temperatures — not extreme heat — pollen counts could climb. That’s especially true as we head into April, typically our windiest month of the year, which helps spread pollen more easily.
How can you treat allergies in Austin?
If you are feeling the effects of allergies, here are some things you can do to lessen them:
- Start taking allergy medication at least two weeks before your allergen’s season is supposed to start. Keep taking your allergy medication throughout your allergen’s season, even on low-pollen days.
- Vary your allergy medication. You can take a nasal spray, an eye drop and an oral antihistamine at the same time to treat the different symptoms. If one kind of allergy medication isn’t working, consult your doctor about whether you should add a second one or switch out the medication.
- Take a shower before going to bed.
- Take off outside clothes or shoes when you get into the house.
- Do a daily nasal wash such as a neti pot or saline spray.
- Consider seeing an allergist to get drops or shots to lessen your reaction to the allergen.
Consider these household tips to improve your chances of keeping allergens away:
- Change the filters in your house regularly during cedar fever season.
- Vacuum and sweep regularly.
- Change your sheets, especially your pillow regularly.
- Keep doors and windows closed.
- Clean out the vents in your home.
- Have your home tested for indoor allergens such as mold.
- Wash and brush the animals in your house to lessen the amount of allergens in the air.
- Wear a mask outside or inside while you are trying to lessen the pollen or mold indoors.
Democrats tried to stop a mid-decade redistricting effort, but were unsuccessful. Now, we are starting to see some of the candidates emerging in those newly drawn districts. FOX 7 Austin’s Rudy Koski gives a full breakdown.
ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) – A shooting on West Sixth Street in Austin, Texas, early Sunday morning, killed three people and injured more than a dozen others, according to the Austin Police Department. APD confirmed one of the victims was 30-year-old Jorge Pederson, a Minnesota man who worked as an MMA fighter for the Med City Fighting Championships.
“You meet tons of fighters and there are people that stand above the rest that you find you enjoy or find the most amusing,” MCFC Co-Owner Matthew Vogt said. “He was definitely one of them.”
According to Vogt, Pederson was also the owner of a Minnesota business called Metro Movers. Vogt said the MMA competitor touched everyone’s hearts since his first day of fighting professionally in Rochester.
“As soon as we met him when it was the weighing time, we just loved the guy already because he had a great mission or spirit about him,” Vogt said. “He was a funny guy and great fighter.”
Vogt told KTTC when he first saw the news that Pederson was killed, he could not believe what he saw.
“I was looking, like, ‘Wait a minute. Is this one of his shenanigans or did something actually happen there?’” Vogt said, recalling the moment he saw a social media post regarding the shooting in Austin. “I confirmed with a few people and I’m just like, sometimes, some things happen that you don’t even like, you don’t even know how to respond to it because it’s just so out of left field that you don’t immediately have a response to it.”
MCFC confirmed there is an online fundraiser dedicated to supporting Pederson’s family. As of Tuesday afternoon, more than $10,000 has been raised.
“He was someone that always could make anybody laugh,” Vogt said. “Support his family through the fundraiser and take a look at his Instagram especially to see how funny he was.”
