BERCKMAN’S GOLDEN ARBORVITAE 
CONIFERS 
ARBORVITAE 
Through the hot months of the year evergreens such as 
arborvitaes, cypress trees and junipers get full of dust and 
this has a tendency to encourage red spiders to work. These 
are easily kept at a minimum by using the hose with a nozzle 
at a strong stream of water and washing these plants out 
about once a week. If spiders get too bad, use dusting sulphur 
or End-O-Pest for a counteracting measure.
