Tree Defender, LLC was formed by Scotty Thompson & Thomas A. Thayer Jr. They are both 3rd generation citrus growers from Polk County. After HLB hit the industry hard a several years ago they wanted to come up with a simple solution to help fellow growers fight citrus greening. They invented the Tree Defender, which is a protective screen cover that protects the trees from HLB. The cover is made out of a breathable mesh screen product that can be left on all year around. We have had great success with it here in Florida. We have been utilizing Tree Defender for over 4 years now with 175,000+ in commercial citrus groves. No single psyllid has ever been found inside our Tree Defenders. We are 2 years in on validation trials underway with Dr. Fernando Alferez of University of Florida CREC in Immokalee to validate the data what we have been seeing in our commercial groves.
