WTG is based in Arvada and plans professional ground application of Komodo for suitable vegetation and ground fuels across Colorado. Every proposal is tied to the property, local context, access and an owner-authorized treatment scope.
We confirm availability and travel as part of your quote. Page reviewed October 5, 2026.
Colorado landscapes range from open grassland to ponderosa pine and Douglas-fir foothills, with lodgepole pine, aspen and spruce-fir forests at higher elevations. The vegetation around a home can change dramatically with elevation and exposure.
We look at the grass, brush and ground fuels connecting natural areas to the places you use. Your treatment proposal focuses on suitable areas around priority buildings and private access, with cleanup and defensible-space work considered alongside application.
Vegetation varies from property to property. We confirm suitable treatment areas during your assessment.
A foothill home, a subdivision beside open land and a Front Range acreage property can have very different fuels. Define the transition from maintained grounds to grass, brush or wooded areas, then keep neighboring and public land outside the scope unless authority is documented.
Elevation, seasonal access, private roads and property-management schedules can shape a mountain project. Identify each priority building, the local person who can coordinate access and any mitigation or landscape work planned before application.
Do not turn total acreage into an assumed spray footprint. Separate buildings, shared grounds, roadside units and operating areas; identify animals, feed, water, public use and land-control boundaries before pricing or scheduling.
Past fires in Colorado give context to the importance of preparedness. These are historical examples, not current incident alerts.
Boulder County, Colorado
The December 2021 Marshall Fire is part of the Front Range’s recent wildfire history, including developed communities alongside open land.
Read the account: National Weather ServiceNorthern Colorado, near Cameron Pass
The fire began in August 2020 southwest of Red Feather Lakes and burned across a wide range of elevations and forest types.
Read the account: U.S. Geological SurveyFor your property, the next step is to understand today’s vegetation, improve defensible space and consider suitable supplemental treatment. These incidents are not evidence that a particular product would have changed the outcome.
Colorado State Forest Service describes a state that spans plains, high plateaus, foothills, canyons and mountains, with forest types ranging from ponderosa pine and piñon-juniper to lodgepole pine, aspen, oak shrublands and spruce-fir. A city name or ZIP code therefore cannot establish what should be treated. WTG starts with current photographs, priority assets, vegetation, slope, irrigation, water and practical ground access.
CSFS advises owners to start with the structure and work outward, addressing structural ignitability and surrounding defensible space together. Those responsibilities remain separate from WTG’s vegetation-application service. Complete planned debris removal, mowing, pruning, thinning and building improvements first so a proposed treatment map reflects the fuels expected to remain.
Colorado Community Wildfire Protection Plans can identify local wildfire concerns, values, priorities and proposed fuel-reduction work. CSFS also says a county plan does not replace the detail needed for project-level planning. A CWPP does not grant WTG access, establish product suitability or authorize work on HOA, neighboring, municipal or federal land. Bring the relevant plan into the conversation, then confirm the actual owner, approving party and treatment units for this proposal.
The Marshall Fire occurred on December 30, 2021. The National Weather Service’s Colorado fire-history table records 1,084 structures destroyed, a reminder that dry fuels and severe fire weather can affect developed Front Range communities outside the period many owners think of as fire season. That history does not predict conditions at a property or show that pretreatment would have changed an outcome. Scheduling should instead follow current vegetation, other mitigation work, application conditions and project readiness.
The U.S. Forest Service Qualified Products List dated September 15, 2025 identifies Komodo K500CC for the listed pretreatment and ground-application category under specific formulation and application conditions. The same record says durability and weathering were not evaluated for that category. WTG does not extend that qualification to every Komodo formulation, certify an individual property or promise a fixed protection period.
WTG plans mobilization from Arvada. A Front Range site and a remote mountain property can differ in travel, equipment positioning, road conditions, occupancy, seasonal access and local coordination. WTG does not publish an unsupported statewide square-foot rate or treat a planning coverage assumption as a final application rate. The proposal should identify the treatment units, exclusions, preparation, product, access assumptions, price and completion record before you commit.
Begin with information that lets WTG evaluate operating fit without pretending a web form is a site certification. The request starts a review; it is not a booking, approval or binding estimate.
WTG professionally applies Komodo long-term fire retardant to suitable vegetation and ground fuels before a wildfire occurs.
Long-term retardant changes how treated fuel burns, helping slow fire spread and reduce fire intensity. Treatment focuses on the selected fuels within your agreed scope.
The retardant action continues after the application water evaporates. Weather, irrigation and changes to treated vegetation affect when inspection or reapplication is needed.
WTG handles the treatment review, application and completion record. You know which areas are included, what preparation is needed and what the work costs before deciding.
Komodo is described by its manufacturer as colorless and odorless; a white residue may be visible. We discuss appearance and suitability when reviewing your property. Learn more about Komodo.

Pretreatment adds to defensible space, home hardening and vegetation care. It does not make a property fireproof or replace evacuation guidance.
The Jefferson County foothills bring grasslands into ponderosa pine and Douglas-fir country. Homes can sit beside both open slopes and wooded ground.
Boulder County rises from plains grassland into wooded foothills and higher mountain forest. The transition near a home matters more than the size of the lot.
Douglas County includes open grassland, oak brush and ponderosa pine settings. Estate grounds and community spaces can meet several of these vegetation types.
Around Arapahoe County homes, maintained landscaping and planted trees meet open grassland in some locations. The useful starting point is the vegetation at the edge of your own grounds.
The Aspen area combines valley grass and shrubland with aspen and conifer forests at higher elevations. A home, guesthouse and shared grounds may each have different surroundings.
The Eagle Valley transitions from open grass and shrub slopes to aspen and conifer forests. That variety is why valley-floor properties and wooded mountain homes need different treatment scopes.
Summit County mountain settings include lodgepole pine, aspen and higher spruce-fir forest. We look closely at the ground vegetation and fallen material near the areas you use.
San Miguel County spans open valley landscapes and wooded mountain settings. Around Telluride, aspen and conifer forests are part of the wider landscape.
Routt County includes open ranchland, aspen stands and conifer forests. Properties near Steamboat Springs can bring pasture, wooded edges and residential grounds together.
La Plata County transitions from lower pinyon-juniper country to ponderosa pine and higher mountain forest. Durango-area properties can contain open grass as well as wooded ground.
El Paso County brings together plains grassland, foothill vegetation and the ponderosa pine landscape of Black Forest. Those differences guide where an assessment begins.
Larimer County stretches from plains grassland through ponderosa pine foothills into higher mountain forests. A Fort Collins acreage property and an Estes Park cabin can need very different scopes.
Park County includes broad grasslands, wooded foothills and higher-elevation forest. We consider those transitions when reviewing homes, cabins and ranch buildings.
Clear Creek County mountain properties sit among slopes and conifer forests that change with elevation. Ground vegetation, fallen material and access are all part of the treatment review.
WTG is based in Arvada and reviews Colorado projects property by property. Location, scope, access, travel and scheduling are confirmed before a project is accepted.
No. Defensible space reduces or modifies fuels around structures. WTG evaluates selected vegetation that remains for supplemental pretreatment after planned mitigation and landscape work are considered.
No. A CWPP provides community planning context. It does not establish land authority, product suitability, a contractor scope or permission to work on private, shared or public land.
Yes. The authorized board or manager should distinguish common land from private lots, name treatment units and define the approval and resident-communication process. Participating private property still requires appropriate authorization.
Not automatically. WTG prioritizes suitable, accessible vegetation near named buildings and operating areas. Total acreage is context, not the application footprint.
WTG does not promise a fixed duration. Product qualification does not establish durability, and irrigation, weather, new growth and grounds work can affect treated vegetation. Follow-up is based on conditions and the agreed service record.
No. WTG does not guarantee survival, certify a property, promise an insurance outcome or replace evacuation instructions, defensible space and home hardening.
