Annual Mature Palm Protection Program
Treatment is what SDPP does.
I make four scheduled visits each year to treat your palms, check for visible changes, and keep their photographs and service records up to date.
- Four scheduled visits per year
- Preventive SAPW treatment by a licensed Qualified Applicator
- Visual health and infestation review
- Repeat photographs and service records
- SDPP scheduling reminders
- Priority response when symptoms appear
After each visit
I keep track of what changes.
I photograph the whole palm and take closer views of the crown. When I return, I compare those views and add the work to the treatment record.
Work and observations
The service performed, visible findings and the history you supplied. An observation is kept separate from a confirmed diagnosis.
The next step
The next scheduled visit and any recommended action. If you see a concerning change between visits, contact me rather than waiting.

Getting started
Know the scope before deciding.
Send your city, palm count, concern and any treatment history you know. We can discuss a single important palm or a managed property.
Talk with John
I review your inquiry and explain the appropriate assessment or property walkthrough. Any assessment fee and visit scope are discussed before scheduling.
Review the property
I look at the palms, visible condition and access, and explain the treatment or monitoring options that fit.
Agree on the work
The quote defines the palms, service scope and schedule. Additional work or visits are discussed before being added.
