As evergreen trees grow, the bottom branches and\nneedles become a bigger target for insects and nuisance wildlife. This could be\none reason why your evergreen tree is experiencing needle loss or\ndiscoloration. Pine beetles are a common conifer pest, as well as, termites. Cytospora\ncanker disease is common among conifers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Water Deficiency<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason why evergreen trees show symptoms of decline\nis due to a lack of water. Inadequate amounts of water will cause a conifer to\ndry out and drop its needles, overtime. The bottom needles do this to allow the\nrest of the tree some water. To resolve this problem, check the soil beneath\nthe tree for moisture. If the soil is dry, it needs to be watered. Continue to\nwater your tree regularly throughout the year, and be sure to mulch in the\nspring and summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nature\u2019s Course<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, there is nothing you can do about a dying\nevergreen tree. There are cases in which it is just a natural part of nature\u2019s cycle.\nThis could be due to some inherited defect in the tree\u2019s genetic material, or\nsimply a result of inclement weather or climates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What To Do<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a dead or dying tree on your property, it is vital to have it assessed by a professional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treeservicenoblesville.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Noblesville tree service company (opens in a new tab)\">Noblesville tree service company<\/a> to ensure it is not a safety hazard.
