About Me

Jacquie Randle is the owner operator of Randle Handles Horticulture Ltd.  She specializes in Plant Health Care and insect and disease diagnostics with over 12 years experience.  As a licensed pesticide applicator Jacquie finds it most important to know if the use of chemical is required and used safely. Some insects just cause aesthetic damage while others are more damaging, causing decline in the health of the tree.  Educating clients is most important to reduce the use of chemicals.  Jacquie has published 2 books; "Insects - An Arborist Field Guide to Identification and Damage" as well as "What's Infesting my Trees".  The photos in these books were all taken by Jacquie and are used throughout the industry as reference material.

Jacquie has been assisting in the Tree Insect and Disease Management courses with Arboriculture Canada for many years and in 2019 became a lead instructor in this domain.  We are happy to welcome Jacquie to our team of experts!
