Box Tree Moth Update

What to look for with Box Tree Moth…

Box Tree Moth Advisory

btm

We’ve received a few questions about the Box Tree Moth. Right now, none have been found north of the Cincinnati area. Our best advice is to keep an eye on your boxwoods. The links provided to the OSU
Buckeye Yard & Garden onLine web site, listed below, are very helpful.

USDA - Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (click here)

In July, 2021, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) confirmed the presence of box tree moth (BTM, Cydalima perspectalis) in Niagara County, New York. The moths are likely from a nearby infestation in Canada. In November 2022, APHIS confirmed the presence of BTM in Lenawee County, Michigan. APHIS and the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development are determining the extent of the infestation in Michigan.
In June 2023, APHIS confirmed BTM in Hamilton County, Ohio.

This invasive pest can significantly damage and potentially kill boxwood (Buxus species) plants if left unchecked. Boxwoods are a popular ornamental evergreen shrub common to almost all landscape environments in the temperate United States.

The insect is native to East Asia and has become a serious invasive pest in Europe and Canada, where it continues to spread. The caterpillars feed mostly on boxwood and heavy infestations can defoliate host plants. Once the leaves are gone, larvae consume the bark, leading to girdling and plant death.

Holiday Announcement

Special Christmas Announcement

Unfortunately, the owners of the Christmas tree farm who have been supplying our trees for decades, have closed their farm.
At this late date, we have been unable to find another grower to supply our trees.
So, for the first time in over 80 years, we have decided to not sell cut trees, grave blankets or holiday wreaths.
We will, however, continue to offer live trees for the holidays.
We would like to thank all of our loyal holiday customers for visiting us over these many years.
We hope you'll keep us in mind for your future holiday needs!

All of us at Deal's wish you a very happy holiday season!

Snow Removal

snowshovel Let It Snow… and let Deal's clear it away!

Deal’s is hiring!

More info: Call Deal’s at (937) 426-2118 or visit our office…
3454 Dayton-Xenia Road
Beavercreek, Ohio 45432
(Find Deal’s)

We are looking to fill multiple positions at Deal's – maintenance crew and hardscape crew positions are available. We are a well established company in Beavercreek with over 80 years in business. Experience is preferred but not necessary. On–the–job training is provided with advancement opportunities available. A positive attitude is a must with a willingness to learn. These are full time positions with overtime available during the busy season. These are physically demanding positions and we work in most weather conditions as well. Starting pay is based on experience and knowledge.

Veggie Plants

Due to shortages of materials, we will not have vegetable plants this year. The grower informed us the crop is very small and minimally successful. Portions of the soil mix have been unavailable this year and the substitutions did not work as planned.
Sorry for the inconvenience and please keep us in mind for next years plants.

Planting Tomatoes


Tomato Planting


Every year, right about now, we have many customers calling to ask about tomato plants. Here’s what we want everyone to know.

The average current soil temperatures on our part of Ohio is between 54 & 57 degrees F. The best soil temperature for tomato transplants is between 65 & 70.

We may be able to get the plants to survive with colder than optimum soil temperatures, but the roots won’t thrive. Generally, planting early does not mean earlier fruit.

The best transplant time for us is sometimes as early as Early May. Mid to late May could be better considering the weather so far this year.

Sorry! I know if you’re like I am, my mouth waters just thinking about biting into a vine ripened tomato picked right in my own yard.

Think Spring

Think Spring!
It's time to plan landscape updates for 2022.
How about a new patio or walkway? Maybe some new plantings?
How about cleaning out existing beds and adding fresh mulch?
Contact Deal's! We're here to help with all your landscaping needs.

Deal's will have fresh cut and live trees available this year shortly before Thanksgiving week. Shop early for the best selection!

Wreaths and roping will also be available, but we're sorry that custom made wreaths and roping will not be available this year.

Custom made grave blankets will be available, but please place your order as soon as possible.

Watering Your Landscape

sprinkler It's been a relatively dry fall so far…

it's important to keep your lawn and landscape well watered… at the minimum, an inch or more per week, especially for recent plantings, even over the winter months, temperatures permitting. Frequent watering helps your plantings prepare for the winter months when they will be dormant. Healthy dormant plants will very probably survive an Ohio winter.

Questions? Contact Deal's for help and advice! We want to help you maintain your landscape over the winter months.

Fall Planning


Even in the torrential downpour, we are making plans for this coming fall. Fall is the best time for planting new plants that are set to take off in the spring. Stop by and admire our selection of shade trees and evergreens for your home. We also offer fall cleanup and leaf removal after the beautiful colors of autumn have left us. Let us know how we can help you get your landscape and property setup for this coming winter.

Speaking of winter, we are selling cut Christmas trees again this year. They will be available the weekend before Thanksgiving, so keep us in mind for decorating your home for this holiday season.

Several people in our community have fallen victim to armyworm infestations. If you'd like more information regarding how to identify or treat armyworm infestations, visit this website [ https://bygl.osu.edu/index.php/node/1859 ]. If you would like to do an at home test, mix a little dish soap in water and pour it on a section of your yard. If the worms come up after an hour or so, you may need to seek further treatment.

Thanks for thinking of Deal's.

Caryn Weaks

Caryn

Caryn Weaks, a valued co-worker at Deal's for some 29 years and, more importantly, a great friend to us all, passed on Saturday, January 23, 2021, after a lengthy battle with cancer.

Remembrances from a few of her friends and colleagues at Deal's:

“I always found Caryn to be generous. She would bring in food, clothes and toys for us and our families. She used to say she had a 6th sense; she could tell who walked into the shop by how the door opened or how our boots sounded on the steps. Many customers would comment on how nice she was to talk to on the phone and how helpful she was. It’s sad that so many people she interacted with will only ever know her voice; never really got to see or meet the person she was beyond the phone.”

“Caryn was a rock to lean on whenever we needed help. She was the person to depend on anytime she was asked. She was also very imaginative and was the source behind our Gingerbread Barn at Christmas. One fall day, after walking to the mailbox, she came back into the office and said ‘We should make this barn into a gingerbread house. It’s the right color.’ And then, with her inspiration, we made it happen. She always had a smile on her face. Then there were her fingernails; always long, colorful, playful and constantly changing. We miss you Caryn.”

“Caryn was one employee who was always at work early or on time. If she wasn’t at the office on time, I knew something was wrong. When she was early, we would sit and chat for a few minutes before getting to work. Whenever she was overloaded with work, she never let it bother her. She always knew she’d get it done. And she did. Mostly, I miss our morning chats when we solved the troubles of the world. I know she loved her kids and grandkids and would do anything in the world for them. There will never be another Caryn. She’s dancing with the angels now.”

"Caryn was always a great rep for Deal's! I've been a Deal's client for over 35 years, Caryn was always one of the best reps for their company… friendly, understanding, and always more than willing to go the extra mile to help with any problem. I'll really miss her!"

You'll be greatly missed, Caryn!

Awesome Foodbank Update!

Updated total: $4,210.00 donated to The Foodbank!

Thanks to all who gave to our Foodbank Christmas Tree Program. Our final total for donations was $2,105.00 which Deal's matched for a total of $4,210.00 being presented to The Foodbank.

Watch WDTN's 2News report.

Some 35 cut trees (estimated retail value of $2,900) were purchased with a Foodbank donation by our customers.

Thank You!

Thanks to all who helped with our FoodBank Christmas Tree program! Deal's raised $1,984.00 for The FoodBank which we will be matching.

We are out of free cut trees.

We still have some live trees available at regular prices for your home decorating needs.
