3 TIPS TO SUCCESSFULLY GROW FRUIT TREES IN YOUR BACKYARD

 * Posted March 3, 2021June 22, 2021
 * by i5latree



If you ask any gardener, they will tell you that tending to your own garden of
fruit trees can be extremely satisfying and feel very rewarding. Not only is it
a pleasure to watch and wait for your plants grow into a mature fruit tree, it
also very fulfilling to start eating any fruit and vegetables that started out
with just a seed. Eating fresh fruit is healthy and nutritious for our body, but
oftentimes we tend to not eat them on a regular basis due to fact that they
could get very expensive at the market or the grocery depending on the season.
Initially, planting fruit trees are more expensive than buying the fruit itself
from the grocery, but think of it like an investment of your money and time.
Once you have a full grown tree, you will be able to start seeing a return on
investment for your hard work. In the long run, it will definitely save you tons
of money, and at the same time you can control whether or not you would be using
pesticides on your fruit trees making your home-grown organic fruits much more
healthier.

Growing a fruit tree takes a lot of patience, and in the process you might give
up, or lose interest along the way. Whether it may be you wanting to add more
servings of fruit to your daily diet, or just grow a few trees to save money on
your weekly grocery bill, you will need to make sure that you tend to your fruit
trees until you taste the first fruit that grows from it. David from Fairfield
County Tree Service, from Wilton, CT has always told me that watching a tree
bloom for that first time in the season is his favorite part of the whole
process.  He knows that his hard work and dedication to what he loves to do best
has brought more beauty into this world. He tells me that almost every flower
will become a delicious treat and that is his greatest reward in the whole
process.  Taking care of your fruit trees is always worth the wait and will
continue to reward you continuously throughout it’s lifetime.   With our 3 step
guide, we hope that you we can inform you well enough before taking on the task
of planting and caring for your very own fruit tree.


POLLINATION IS ESSENTIAL TO FRUITING FOR TREES

Majority of gardeners usually plant trees just improving the landscape of your
home or property. If you really want to be serious about growing a tree that can
bear fruit, you will need to keep in mind that pollination is the best way to
achieve this. Otherwise, you will be left with a tree with just their flowers.
To pollinate trees, you will need to draw in as many bees, birds, and other
pollinators to successfully see fruiting from your tree. Although there are
trees that can self-pollinate such as peach trees, citrus tree, and nectarine
trees, your selection of trees could be very limited to these few species only.
Meanwhile, there are also other self-pollinating trees that would need to be
beside each other for it to start fruiting such as apple trees, pear trees, and
plum trees.

To be fully efficient on making your backyard or farm pollinator-friendly, it is
important to take all the available approaches possible. First, you will need to
remove harmful elements that could keep pollinators such as bees and birds away
from your fruit trees. These harmful elements could include the loss of habitat,
harmful pesticides, and specific threats that these pollinators tend to avoid.
After making sure that your yard is free of these harmful elements towards
pollinators, you can apply some tips and tricks to start attracting them towards
your garden or farm. One good example would be to add in plants that are in
bloom during all seasons of the year and adding in more flowers beds can
definitely help increase pollination, which would make the process of fruiting
much quicker. If you want to put in ever more time and effort into attracting
more pollinators to your plants and trees, you can place plants which are native
or familiar to the pollinators of your area, which should help increase your
number of visitors even more.


FINDING TIME DURING THE SEASONS TO PLANT FRUIT TREES

Not all species of fruit trees are growable through out the difference seasons
of the year. If you are planning to cultivate your own fruit tree, you must
first know the proper planting time which is essential when it comes to
successfully growing your very own fruit tree. If you plant specific fruit trees
too close the “ber” months or winter time, there is a good chance your tree
would die of the cold temperature before it could even start fruiting. Another
issue that might occur is that fruit trees during the summer have a chance to be
drier, which would hinder your fruit tree’s growing due to the lack of available
water in the soil.

No matter which fruit trees you are planning to cultivate, knowing the proper
planting time for each tree is essential. If you plant certain fruit trees too
close to the winter time, you risk the cold temperature frost killing it before
it has a chance to establish itself and start fruiting. If you plant certain
fruit trees too close to the summer, you chance that the developing roots may
not have a chance to soak up enough water that is critical to their growth and
development.


CARE THAT YOU MIGHT NEED TO ADMINISTER TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF FRUIT TREES

Every species of fruit trees might come along with its own set of needs and
instructions for it to grow and start fruiting. Throughout a fruit trees
lifespan, you will need to pay attention to the following processes such as
watering, trimming, pruning, fertilizing, protecting it from pests and
diseasing, and other tasks that it would require for maintenance. By paying
close attention to every specific need for each species of tree, you will be
able to start harvesting the fruits from your garden much sooner that you think.


PEACHES

To begin, soaking, storing, and finally planting a peach pit is just the start
to the three years that you will have to wait before your peach tree starts
producing any fruit that is worth picking. Aside from the long wait, growing
your very own tree from a peach pit only has one other issue. With using the pit
from store bough peaches, there is no way of knowing that you will be growing a
particular breed of peach that is native to your area. Oftentimes, peach trees
love mild temperatures, and will fruit even more if you only have
self-pollinating plan in your garden. Once you have all of this down on your
checklist, you will finally be able to take a unforgettable bite on the first
peach from your tree after patiently waiting three long years for it to grow
fully.


CHERRIES

The great thing about cherry trees is that it doesn’t need pollination to still
produce fruit. Specifically, sour cherry trees can self pollinate on their own,
but if you want to grow sweet red cherries that we are familiar with, you will
to have at least two  varieties of cherry trees planted in parallel to each
other, so that they can be cross-pollinated. Planting and growing cherry trees
could be easy and rewarding if you’re located in a place where there’s a lot of
sunshine and well-draining soil.


APPLES

Apples love the colder climate, and they need the break of a dormant season to
start fruiting at their fullest capacity. This climate may include rainy seasons
and snowy winters, but they don’t feel nearly as inconvenient and gloomy when
you own apple trees, as every dormant season will result in a harvest increase
of apples. If you grow your apples from seeds, you will need to have patience
while you wait for your apple trees to start fruiting. On average, most species
of apple trees will need at least four years to grow before any fruit is
produced and ready for consumption.


ORANGES

Sweet oranges can be one of the prettiest fruit trees you can grow in your
garden or farm. Like all the other citrus fruit favorites, oranges love warm
climates with lots of exposure to sunlight, and climates that don’t experience
any snow or frost. Although, citrus trees can be grown in a slightly cooler
climate, you might  need to have the room to move them indoors or to a
greenhouse during the winter, so that they can survive the cold harsh weather.
Considering the beautiful contrast of colors that orange trees can bring to your
garden, choosing to grow citrus trees such as sweet oranges will definitely
yield you with fruits all year round.


PEARS

Similar to the climate of apple trees, pears will thrive in the same environment
as them. Pears are similar to apples in many ways such as they produce a core of
small seeds including a four-year wait before they start fruiting. However,
pears are some of Connecticut Tree Removal’s personal favorites, so they
definitely think that wait 4 years for it is definitely worth the wait. Once the
four-year growing period is over, you can expect a lot of pears from the tree
you’ve been caring to over the years. Not only will a pear tree give you enough
fruits on your table when it does start producing them, it will also produce
enough pears to give as presents to your family and friends.




5 MUST-HAVE TREE PRUNING TOOLS FOR GARDENING

 * Posted March 2, 2021June 22, 2021
 * by i5latree



Pruning is the process of changing a plant’s form and directing how it will grow
by cutting parts of it to be able to efficiently grow the plant faster and
better. What are the effects of pruning plants? Firstly, pruning enhances plant
or trees health by helping rid of the plant’s dead, damage, and diseased parts.
By doing this, gardeners will help prevent any certain kind of diseases which
will eventually spread to other unaffected parts of plant. It also speeds up the
formation of new tissues on the plants, which allows it to grow better. Next,
pruning helps enhance the plant’s appearance. Pruning rids the plant of any
unwanted branches, bad fruiting and flowering structures to help the plant grow
and in the process make it aesthetically beautiful. Also, pruning plants allows
you to affect the overall look of your landscaping project on your home or
property. Not only does landscaping help your property look better, but it can
also help prevent injury and any potential damage on your property  or on your
neighbors property in the future. Lastly, the process of pruning allows the
plant to enhance its flowering and fruiting capabilities.


HERE’S OUR RECOMMENDED LIST OF PRUNING TOOLS THAT WE PERSONALLY USE FOR OUR
GARDEN AS WELL


1. PRUNING SHEARS

Pruning shears which can include pruners, clippers, or secateurs are probably
the most-used tool when it comes to pruning any flowers, vines shrubs and small
growth on trees for landscaping. These pruning shears are usually hand-held, and
can cut branches and twigs up to three fourths of an inch thick. When shopping
for pruning shears, there are three basic types to choose from which will be
dependent on the needs of your landscaping project. These types of pruning tools
include anvil, bypass and ratchets with bypass being the most popular among the
three. A bypass pruning tool is very simple to use, since it acts very similar
to scissors, which is good for cutting growing stems. Anver pruners and ratchet
pruners are very similar to each other. An anver pruning tool features a
straight blade that uses a splitting action, while ratchet features an
additional mechanism that can cut stems in stages. The anver and ratchet pruning
tool work great for branches and stems.


2. LOOPERS

Loopers are tools used on trees. Often times when tree service professionals cut
down a tree, they opt to remove branches from a tree first before proceeding
with the actual process of cutting it. The looper pruning tool are great for
branches that are two and one-half inch thick, and are very useful when it comes
to pruning fruit trees, nut trees, and vines in your property. Loopers have
thick blades with a much longer handle, but are very similar to a pair of hand
sheers. Like the ordinary pruning shears, loopers can also come in anvil,
bypass, and ratchet.


3. PRUNING SAWS

Another pruning tool which are frequently used by tree service professionals are
pruning saws. Pruning saws are large pruning shears which has a longer handle
and with a blade shaped like an arc, which helps with the efficiency of cutting
the branches of a tree. Pruning Saws is capable of taking on branches from 1 to
5 inches in diameter, and can be purchased in many different styles.


4. HEDGE SHEARS

Hedge shears is the best tool to use to properly maintain your hedges. Other
than hedges, you may also use hedge shears on small shrubs, evergreens, and
deadheading perennials. Although hedge shears can cut through most hedges, it
works best when the hedge shrub or branches are up to two and a half inch thick.


5. POLE PRUNER

Pole pruners are essential for reaching dead wood in tree or if light pruning is
ever needed. Generally, pole pruners can be used on any tree, and is not
dependent on size or the height of the tree. Pole pruners can cut through
branches up to one and one half inch in diameter. The best part of the a pole
pruner that it can be extended by 8 feet or more, so that you can reach higher
parts of the tree if  needed. Pole pruners are perfect since it can eliminate
the need for ladders, and it can be used for electric pole pruners as well.


PROPER MAINTENANCE OF PRUNING TOOLS

Keeping your pruning tools clean is also as important than having them stored
safely in your garage. Since tree sap could be messy when dealing with plants
and trees, it could potentially harden on your tool and most importantly tree
sap could possibly carry disease which can spread from tree to tree. 
Connecticut Tree Service has told us that it is very important to carry a rag
and alcohol around with you, so that you can wipe down any potential disease
carrying tree sap from your pruning tool. Lastly, you will also need to keep
your pruning tools sharp using the right sharpener.


2021 GUIDE TO HOW MUCH A TREE REMOVAL SERVICE COULD COST

 * Posted March 1, 2021June 22, 2021
 * by i5latree



In this guide, we will show you how much a tree removal from your property could
cost you. Besides for an on-site inspection of the tree removal project, there’s
no exact way of determining the cost of safely and properly removing at tree on
your property. On inspection, tree removal service providers would usually have
guidelines that would help make a correct and fair estimate for the project. For
example, the complexity of the job which, often times correlates to the safety
of your property, and the height of the tree may affect the pricing of the
project significantly. With this, costing a tree removal project may vary from
different tree service providers in your area, and will also be dependent on the
equipment they use, location and condition of the tree, and time to complete the
project. With this you’re probably here looking for an average cost of tree
removal service? Based from our research and experience, we found out that tree
service companies can charge for as low as $200 up to $1600 depending on your
location and project size. Other tree service like stump removal will cost you
even more if you do decide to uproot the stump as well. As for stump removal or
stump grinding, it can cost from $65 to $375 for stump removal and $100 to $1000
for stump grinding.


WHAT IS INCLUDED FOR THE VERY BASIC TREE REMOVAL SERVICE?

There are plenty different levels of tree removal services available when
removing a tree from any property, but a few basic services are usually included
with any package or recommendation that tree removal services usually provide.
Firstly, the tree will be need to be chopped down. Typically, the tree expert
will also have to remove pieces on top or the middle of the tree by climbing the
tree and cutting the tree into a more manageable size. In many cases, it may
also be hauled away by your tree removal service at no extra charge (or this is
included in the estimate). Elite Tree Removal will always provide a free service
of removing a tree on any basic tree removal service that they provide.


TREE REMOVAL RELATED SERVICES THAT MAY COST EXTRA MONEY

Some people want more than a basic tree removal service for their tree removal
project on their property. For example, if the price doesn’t include removing
tree limbs before actually cutting the tree, you may have to pay extra for limb
removal. Another, you may also have to pay for tree removal company to haul the
tree away. There are plenty of other tree removal related services that may you
cost you extra. Here’s a list of tree removal services that may cost you extra.

 * Stump removal is almost never included in the price of removing a tree from
   your property. Unless you pay extra for this service, tree removal service
   providers will usually leave the stump still in place on your property.
   Although you may ask for a discount or a special price to include stump
   removal into the whole package, it will depend greatly on what kind of tools
   and process they would use to get the job done. However, there are tree
   service providers that may not have the tools or the expertise to provide
   this service, and you might need to find someone else to do it separately
   which may cost you even more money. It is important to make sure that the
   your tree removal service provider has the capacity to remove stumps. Lastly,
   the diameter of the stump helps determine the cost of removing it. Pro Tree
   Removal says that you can expect to pay between $70 and $360 per stump. On a
   side note, a rotting stump should be cheaper to remove than a healthy, solid
   stump.
 * Limb Chipping is the process of remove limbs from the tree before it gets cut
   down. Instead of paying more to have the limbs hauled away, you may choose to
   have them chipped first. If the tree service provider has a chipper machine
   readily available, this shouldn’t increase the cost of the project much more.
   If it’s not included, you may have to pay around $75 more to have the limbs
   hauled away.
 * For tree trunks removals, usually companies will include this service with
   their initial pricing of the tree removal service project. If they don’t
   include this in, they should at the very least the cut the trunk into smaller
   pieces making it easier for you to dispose of them or move them around. If
   the company has not included the cost of hauling the tree away, they will
   most likely charge you extra for this if you prefer them to keep the trunk.
   The amount you’ll pay will vary depending on your location, but you’ll
   probably pay between $50 and $100 more for this extra service.
 * Travel expenses may vary depending on how far the tree removal service
   company is from your home or property. If you live in a remote area or far
   from the tree removal company, then they will most likely charge you more for
   their travel expenses, especially if you plan to have them haul away the
   tree. Part of this cost will include the gasoline used and the driver’s time.
 * Another add-on service that may cost you extra money is log splitting. If you
   request them to split logs for you, it will cost you extra depending on the
   amount of logs you would need for your fireplace. There is no fixed price for
   this service, but it can cost $75 on average.


AVERAGE COST OF REMOVING A TREE

Now that you have a feel for what the possible addition services are going to
cost, you are probably thinking on how much you’ll actually have to pay to have
specific varieties of tree removed. This will largely depend on the height of
the tree and the width of its trunk. On average, it can cost between $150 and
$500 for tree 25 feet tall, $200 to $1000 for trees 25-75 feet tall, and $1500
for trees over 75 feet.


LARGE TREE REMOVAL – $1500

Since you will need a few special equipment and a team of highly trained
specialists, there is no realistic way for any homeowner to safely remove a
large tree from his or her property. You definitely don’t want to attempt this
type of job yourself, so that you can avoid damaging your property or
potentially harming yourself and your loved ones. Silver City Tree Service of
Meriden, CT provides that extra care for you and your family with a wide range
of tree removal equipment that brings trees down in a safely manor. One thing to
be aware of right away is that removing a large tree from your property is going
to be expensive. The total cost of the job is calculated based on a number of
different factors. If the specialists have to climb really high and rope down
many branches  before actually felling the tree, which is usually the case for
really tall trees, then expect your total bill to be quite expensive. As noted
above, you could pay $1,500 and maybe even more for that level of service. If
possible, you can haggle for a few small extra services to be thrown in for
free, but not all tree removal service companies are willing to do so.


FALLEN TREE REMOVAL – $75 TO $150

You will probably want to clear it away as quickly as possible if a tree falls
on your property. Although this job isn’t nearly as risky or complicated as
removing a healthy, living tree, you may try possibly remove this tree on your
own, but it still requires a lot of tree removal tools and can lead to injuries
if you’re not careful. The good news is that the cost to remove a fallen tree is
typically a lot cheaper than removing a standing tree. Based from our research
and experience, you will probably pay between $75 and $150 for the work.


OAK TREE REMOVAL – $200 TO $1000

The oak tree has one of the strongest and toughest wood in comparison to other
tree varieties. For that reason, having oak trees removed by tree removal
services may cost higher than usual. Oak trees are also very tall, and on
average can grow up to 60 feet, which is another reason why they are more
expensive to remove. Based from our experience, the average cost for oak tree
removal can be between $200 and $1,000.  Due to the fact that oak is such a
solid, thick wood, your total cost will probably fall on the higher end of the
scale. Before you start on this project, please make sure you have a really good
reason to have it removed before spending that kind of money on removing such a
beautiful tree!


PINE TREE REMOVAL – $200 TO $1500

There are many different kinds of pine trees out there, and the average height
of a pine tree is between 40 and 60 feet and some varieties may grow up to 80
feet though. As stated on this article earlier, the total cost of tree removal
that you’ll pay to have a tree removed depends on how tall and wide the tree is.
In this case, if you have a relatively smaller pine tree, you might pay as
little as $200 or so. If your pine tree is close to the 80 feet mark, the tree
removal service may charge you $1,500 or maybe even more. This is a good example
of why it is important to find a few tree removal quotes from different
contractors before hiring one as it could get really expensive.


TREE STUMP REMOVAL – $65 TO $1000

Stump removal prices vary depending on which method your contractor would you to
remove the stump. For stump removal, it is only advisable to do this if the
roots are decayed or pests are a problem, then having the whole stump and root
system removed is what you need. If the roots are not causing any destruction
and there is no pest problem, then stump grinding would be the way to go.


FACTORS THAT AFFECT TREE REMOVAL PRICES

 * Size – The total height and the size of the diameter of the tree increases
   the price dramatically
 * Condition – If the tree is healthy and strong, your tree removal service may
   charge you more. If it is dead, dying or rotting, the work will be much
   easier and should result in a lower price. If you’re not offered a reasonable
   price, you can always haggle and make a point that the tree isn’t as healthy
   and strong.
 * Location – It’s cheaper to have a tree removed if it is safely away from
   houses and other obstacles in your property. If there are many risks for
   damages to occur, the tree removal service provider is sure to charge more
   for the project. After all, they will be held liable for any piece of
   property that they could possibly damage in the tree removal process.


TREE TRIMMING AND MAINTENANCE

To further increase your property’s curb appeal, it is important to periodically
need to have the trees on your property trimmed into shape or at the very least
maintained. This could be a very time consuming process if done alone, so you
can always higher a tree specialist like D’s Tree Service to help you make your
trees look more aesthetically please through trimming and pruning. The cost of
tree trimming and maintenance can be different from area to area, and could have
a number of pricing factors included as well.


15 SURPRISING FACTS YOU DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT TREES

 * Posted February 26, 2021June 22, 2021
 * by i5latree



Trees are more than just make our landscape look better. They are the life blood
of our planet, not only does it provide us with food and shelter, but they also
help us convert toxic carbon dioxide emissions into the oxygen which we breathe
daily. In addition to trees making our world look better, there are plenty of
other surprising facts that you may or may now know about trees. Here are the 15
of our favorite facts about trees.


1) TREES HAVE THE LONGEST LIFE SPAN IN COMPARISON TO ANY OTHER LIVING ORGANISM
HERE ON EARTH

Not only can trees outlast any living organism on our planet, but some of them
even live up to 4000 to 5000 years old. Out of all the recorded species of trees
here on earth, the oldest species that our scientists could find is the
Bristlecone Pines, specifically the Pinus Longaeva which can live up to 5000
years old. Not only does this tree live long, but it also thrives in cold harsh
environments where cold temperature can be associated with harsh winds blowing
against the tree. Due to the slow growth rate of this tree, it creates a really
dense wood-like structure which helps protect it from insects, fungi, rot, and
erosion. These trees can reach up to 50 feet tall and have a trunk diameter of
154 inches, which makes this tree really sturdy against even harsher
environments such as typhoons and hurricanes.  Recently Town Line Tree Removal
has had the pleasure of trimming some dead branches off of a Pinkosycamore that
was almost 300 years old in Simsbury, CT.


2) WE HAVE FIGURED OUT HOW TO PREDICT CLIMATE CHANGE BY JUST SIMPLY LOOKING AT A
TREE’S RINGS

I’m sure you know by now that just by counting the rings on the tree could tell
you how old the tree is, but I’m sure you’re surprised to find out that our
scientists can also use this method to predict climate change. Other than
climate change you can also predict whether or not there will be an volcanic
eruption for the trees situated around an active volcano. Also, you can also
tell if there will be a drought. A good indicator that scientists usually use to
see if the area has a healthy eco-system is when they see that the rings on the
tree are thick. If the rings on the tree are thin or dry, it could be a good
indicator of a coming drought, or having scarce resources in the eco-system that
the tree is living in. A study from the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology
showed that the increasing heat index and temperature of place in India has had
an negative effect on tree growth due to high potential evapotranspiration—the
rate at which plants lose water through their leaves. These different kinds of
studies to trees done by our scientists help them understand the impact of
climate change.


3) PLANTING TREES AROUND YOUR HOME CAN HELP YOU REDUCE YOUR ELECTRICITY USAGE

Trees are the natural umbrellas of nature. It has provided shelter for humans on
cold days,  and cooled us down from the sun during the warmer days of the year
for thousands of years and thousands of years more if we take start doing our
part and becoming environmentally aware of our situation with nature. If you
live in a warm desert, having full grown trees on a hot summer day can help you
cool down your home, and help you reduce electricity usage by up to 25%!


4) ACCORDING TO OUR SCIENTISTS TREES MAY HAVE NOT EXISTED FOR THE FIRST 90% OF
EARTH’S HISTORY

Our scientists estimate that Earth is roughly about 4.5 billion years old, and
plants may have started only growing on land as recently as 470 million years
ago. These plants may not have been the plants that were accustomed to now, but
most likely there more like mosses and liverworts without deep roots. Following
this period, vascular plants followed 420 million after, but even for millions
of years after that, no plant species were able to grow more than 3 feet above
ground.


5) JUST LIKE ALL LIVING THINGS, TREES HAVE A DEFENSE MECHANISM AGAINST ATTACKS
AS WELL

Have you ever heard a rumor that trees, plants, fruits, or vegetables can feel
pain when your biting into them or chopping them up for self-use? It was never a
proven theory, but trees do have a defense mechanism when its life is
threatened. For example, our scientists have found that trees excrete a certain
chemical called phenolics when insects starting infesting a tree. Specifically,
willow trees can excrete certain chemicals when they’re attacked by webworms,
and other willow trees can produce more tannin making their leaves harder for
the worms to digest.  Tim at New Milford Tree Service says that many trees have
strong defense mechanisms that help to mitigate these attacks.  One of the
strongest trees is the willow because of the chemicals they excrete.


6) TREES CAN HELP REDUCE ANY UNWANTED NOISE FROM YOUR ANNOYING NEIGHBORS

Trees can help reduce noise through a process called sound attenuation, which is
the reduction of sound intensity. How exactly does this process work? Any time
sound is made it travels to all directions until it dies down when it reaches a
certain point depending on the sound intensity. Leaves, twigs, and branches on
trees, shrubs, and plants can help absorb the sound, and could even deflect
certain sound  waves. So if you have a very annoying and noisy neighbor, the
fastest way to get them to tone down is by calling 911. Joking aside, trees do a
great job in reducing any unwanted noise on your property.


7) TREES CAN HELP YOU REDUCE YOUR STRESS LEVELS

Have you ever felt stressed out, and just felt that you just need to go for a
walk to wind down? Trees play a big factor in helping you reduce your stress,
and even make you happier and more relaxed if the weather conditions are
perfect. Not only does trees help keep environment cooler, but it also helps
make your surroundings look more visually appealing which helps you relax even
more. Quinnipiac Tree Services helps college students that attend Quinnipiac
University in North Haven, CT reduce stress by planting a few new trees around
the campus every year.


8) THE FIRST KNOWN TREE THAT WAS RECORDED IN OUR HISTORY ORIGINATED FROM NEW
YORK

Now that you know that trees preset for more than 90% of our planet’s history,
the first actual recorded tree in history called the “arborescence”. It is the
process of when plants have evolved into a tree like form which we are familiar
with today. It was a fern-like tree shaped like a fan with no branches hanging
towards the bottom part. Although this may not be a tree that we are all
familiar with today, it had the same mechanics as a tree would today where water
would go up from the roots, and its leaves would help provide even more
nutrients helping it evolve to different tree species throughout its evolution.


9) MORE THAN HALF OF OUR KNOWN TREE SPECIES ARE ONLY LOCATED FROM ONE COUNTRY

A census back in 2017 highlights that more than 60,065 species of trees which is
almost 60% of all our trees are single-country endemics, meaning each one
naturally occurs only within the borders of one nation. Between Brazil,
Colombia, and Indonesia they have the highest totals for endemic tree species,
which makes them to have the most known tree species native to their country.


10) TREES IN THE FOREST ACTUALLY TALK TO EACH OTHER AND SHARE NUTRIENTS
UNDERGROUND

Trees and plants have a symbiotic relationship with other due to mycorrhizal
fungi that live on their roots creating an underground network where tree can
help each other absorb more water and nutrients from the soil. In return, other
trees who have been helped share a certain sugar from a process called
photosynthesis.


11) PROPER MAINTENANCE OF TREE SCAN HELP YOU IMPROVE YOUR PROPERTY’S CURB APPEAL
WHICH IN RETURN INCREASES ITS VALUE

According to a recent survey, mature and properly maintained trees in a
well-landscaped yard can help increase the curb appeal therefore increase the
value of any property by up to 19%. This study was done across multiple states
with different correspondents living in different types of urban and rural
areas. You can always call your local tree service for a fair estimate on tree
maintenance for your property.


12) TREES IMPROVE WATER QUALITY IN THE GROUND

As rain falls from the sky, it passes through the leaves of the trees. Leaves
from the trees slow down the raindrop before it falls to the ground, and acts
like filters of rain water which allows the soil to better absorb the water, or
till it can be slowly released into bodies of water such as lakes or rivers.
Trees can also prevent soil from eroding into our waterways, reduce storm water
runoff, and lessen potential damage that can be cause by flooding.


13) A TREE’S TRUNK AND BRANCHES CAN GROW AT DIFFERENT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR

Oftentimes, most of the growth for foliage happens in the spring, which is then
followed by trunk growth in the summer, and trees will grow their roots
typically throughout winter and fall.


14) SOME TREES EMIT CHEMICALS THAT ATTRACT ALL SORTS OF BUGS TO DEFEND
THEMSELVES FROM POTENTIAL INFESTATION

Trees may look passive and helpless, but they are very instinctive similar to
animals. Not only can they produce chemicals to combat leaf-eating insects, for
instance, but some also release chemicals into the air to warn nearby trees to
prepare for an insect attack. Scientists have found out that a wide range of
trees and other plants become more resistant to insect infestation after
receiving these signals.


15) TREES CAN CONSUME UP TO 100-500 GALLONS OF WATER PER DAY WHICH HELPS WITH
FLOODING

This is why deforestation is a problem in a lot of countries that experience
wide-spread flooding. Trees helps us absorb all the rain water which helps
prevent flooding. Of course having more trees is part of the solution, but it
does not completely prevent the problem of flooding.

 

 


A COMPLETE GUIDE TO KEEPING YOUR ELM, ASH, & OAK TREES HEALTHY

ELM TREES

Having over 30 species of elm trees around the world, we’ve probably seen a
variation of this during a walk in a park or on a hike through the forest. What
are elm trees? Elm trees are decidous and semi-decidous trees that originated in
Central Asia millions of years ago. Throughout the world, 8 out of the 30
species of elm trees are located in North America. Elm trees are gorgeous
looking trees with oval-shaped leaves with somewhat of a pointy and rounded
edge. Also, If you look closely, you will notice that the leaf is a bit
translucent which allows you to see the veins of the leaf. With a rough bark and
deep grooves, elm trees have an umbrella like structure which with its limbs and
branches spreading out really wide, which is perfect to shade you on a hot
summer day. If you’re trying to look for elm trees, you can always find them
under the sun in areas where there is moist soil. Finding them may be a bit
difficult, but not impossible. The American elm tree used to be one of North
America’s most common trees until a fungal disease, the Dutch Elm Disease, which
grows on the elm tree’s sapwood wiped most of them out. This fungal disease was
a big problem at the time, because it was very hard to trace how far the disease
could spread, since the fungal disease can also spread underground, and infect
other surrounding trees in the area. The disease had a slow process which can
last several years. It starts by infecting roots of the surrounding trees
nearby, and slowly crawls up the branches of the elm tree.


SYMPTOMS OF AN AMERICAN ELM TREE THAT YOU CAN OBSERVE TO SEE IF ITS INFECTED
WITH THE FUNGAL DISEASE:

 * Yellowing or browning leaves in any other season other than Fall. Majority of
   the times you it may already have started from the roots, but you may always
   check if the infection started in the upper crown of the tree. You will see a
   yellow or brown discoloration on the leaves of the Elm tree’s upper branches.
 * If it starts from the roots, you will see a darker discoloration on the bark
   and the lower stems and branches of the elm tree. With this method of
   infection, the elm tree can die out much quicker in comparison to the disease
   starting on the upper crown. For confirmation, you may cut off stem or even a
   thin branch to see if there’s any darker discoloration or brown streaks
   inside.
 * Symptoms usually start during the summer, but it can happen almost any time.
 * The disease can also be spread by beetles which tunnels into the bark of the
   tree moving from one tree to the next. This can also be a good indication
   that the elm tree is infected by the fungal disease.

So how do you exactly treat this disease or deal with elm trees that are
spreading the infection to other nearby trees? For starters, you can always
completely remove the elm tree. Also, you can add in pesticides and fungisides
to help prevent the disease on uninfected trees. If you need help identifying or
treating your infected elm tree and your surrounding trees, you may always call
in a tree service professional to help with you in this matter.


ASH TREES

Ash trees are beautiful trees with 13 different species which can be tall and
wide as an elm tree, or can be a smaller tree which can be found in swamps. Out
of all the species of ash trees, green ash and white ash are commonly found
across the Midwest. With most Ash trees, it is common to see oval-shaped leaves
and diamond shaped ends, which is help by opposing branches. With Ash trees
having a  thick bark, you will also notice a diamond pattern engraved on it as
well. Just like the elm tree, it is important to keep any eye out for invasive
beetles that can also infect your trees with disease which cause it to die.
These beetles can be common in some areas, and some towns have even quarantined
entire areas just to control the spread of the disease.

Where do all these beetles come from? Majority of these infectious beetles
originated from Asia, and is now spreading across the US mostly found in the
upper midwest states. These beetles have a metallic green color and can grow up
to about half an inch long which can make them hard to spot when you’re
inspecting the health of an ash tree. These beetles can kill a tree by simply
laying its egg on the bark, which later on hatches into a larvae which
eventually tunnels into the tree consuming the ash tree’s sapwood as it goes.
This process interrupts the tree water flow from the ground into the branches
and the leaves of the tree, which in effect would dehydrate the tree — killing
it slowly in the process.

The best way to protect your ash trees from getting infested by beetles is
prevention. You’ll need to be proactive to make sure to detect any early signs
of infestation to prevent the eggs from hatching and tunneling into the tree.
Check with your tree service company to see if they have any recommendations on
companies that they recommend to help get these beetles or any other invasive
insects under control. Companies like Fairfield County Tree Removal will be able
to offer you suggestions of local companies that you can trust for critter
removal.


SYMPTOMS OF AN ASH TREE THAT IS INFESTED BY BEETLES:

 * Early Coloration in the fall
 * Branch like pieces coming out of the trunk
 * Woodpeckers living on the tree
 * Branches would die starting from the top all the way down
 * The tree looks like its naked or is missing some branches

While using insecticides could be hazardous to the environment around the tree,
it can definitely help you prevent further damage or any unwanted beetle
infestation on the tree. Before applying insecticides, please make sure to find
out with your local government or a tree professional on guidelines and
restrictions set by the city or state where you’re residing in.


OAK TREES

Across America, Oak trees are probably the most favorite trees used for
landscaping home or commercial establishments. Not only do they look majestic,
but they also give out a magical and blissful feeling during the fall due to the
red and brown leaves on the tree and the layer of leaves surrounding the bottom.
An oak tree can easily be identified with its leaves, since they have a lobe or
sinus-like, similar to the lobe shape of a brain, and the end of these leaves
can be pointy or round. You will also find acorns fruiting from these trees. The
bark of these oak trees are tough and grayish in color with deep ridges embedded
on it. Oak trees can get quite large and can grow between 60 ft. to a 100 ft.

What kind of diseases do oak trees have? Oak trees usually have common tree
diseases such as anthracnose, root rot, or leaf scorch. Another disease that is
specific to the oak tree is oak wilt, and they can kill your tree within a year
if it is not quickly treated by a tree professional. To find if you have oak
wilt on your trees is by looking at the color of top leaves of the tree that
have fallen to the ground. Usually, good indicator is when you see that some of
the fallen leaves from the top will have mix of green and brown colors. The last
indicator is if you notice that your oak tree is not green in color, then please
contact your tree professional and get a fair estimate for this service right
away.

Now that you have figured out how to identify the issues and problems of elm,
ash, and oak trees, we hope that you can fully enjoy and take care of the
environment surrounding you given to us by nature.


HOW TO NEGOTIATE FOR CHEAPER TREE REMOVAL RATES

 * Posted November 9, 2020March 9, 2021
 * by i5latree



Now that we’ve covered how to know that you’re getting a fair estimate on your
tree removal project. You should also know that like most services, tree removal
service providers can also be very flexible when it comes charging their clients
for any tree removal project that they might have. There are three steps that
you will need to understand and take, before getting a good discount from your
tree removal service provider. First of all, you will need to understand what
would be the average price of removing different kinds of trees. This will vary
between different sizes and shapes of trees, and if you would get extra services
done after the tree has been chopped down. Secondly, you will need to understand
the costs from the point of view of the your tree removal service provider. Not
only do you need to take note of the number of hours they will need to work to
complete the project, but also you will need to take into account their
experience, skill, and any special tree removal equipment and tools that they
will be using for the project. Now that you understand the average price of tree
removal and how much it would cost your tree removal service provider to
complete the project, you can now easily identify where you can potentially save
some money on your tree removal project. We will be expounding on these three
steps below, so that you can finally get the cheapest price from your tree
removal service provider to get your tree removal project going. Let’s get
started!


AVERAGE PRICE OF TREE REMOVAL FOR DIFFERENT KINDS OF TREES

The average price of hiring any tree removal expert can cost you between $200 to
$1600 depending on the size of the tree, and availing any of their add-on
services will cost you extra. Besides the prices we will be stating on our list
below, these add-on services are usually already included in the total cost of
the entire project. The add-on services may vary very differently from each tree
service provider, but among the other add-on services that might be included are
stump removal, limb chipping which is removing branches from the top of the tree
before actually chopping down the tree, tree trunk hauling, travel expenses of
their truck or car service, and log splitting. Here are the costs that you will
incur for different kinds of trees that your tree removal expert may offer:

 * Large Tree Removal: $1000 – $1500
 * Medium Tree Removal: $500 – $1000
 * Small Tree Removal: $200 – $500
 * Fallen Tree Removal: $75 – $150
 * Tree Stump Removal: $65 – $1000


UNDERSTAND THE COST YOUR TREE EXPERT WILL INCUR FOR YOUR TREE REMOVAL PROJECT

Now that you understand the average price of cutting down different kinds of
trees. It’s also important to be able to understand the costs that your tree
expert will incur for any kind of tree removal project that you are planning.
First off, the tree experts need to prioritize their safety, and if they see any
hazardous stems or branches that might fall on them during the process, they
might increase the price of the entire project substantially. If possible, it is
also important to remove and clear any obstacles or property such as your home
or electrical lines and poles that could be potentially be damaged during the
tree removal process.

Once the tree expert has scoped out the size of the project and potential
hazardous objects or obstacles that he or she might encounter, he will then make
a recommendation based on your specific tree removal needs. From there, he will
identify which kind tree removal and stump removal equipment he will need to use
to complete the project. These equipment are usually heavy duty, and are very
expensive, so he or she will be including this with the total cost of the tree
removal.

As much as possible, it is important to make to not use services that offer much
lower prices. It is important to stay within the price range stated above,
because tree removal service providers with very cheap rates compared to other
services such as theirs might not have the experience or the equipment to
properly complete the project. It is very doubtful whether or not the person
will be qualified enough or licensed if an accidental logger attempts to remove
your tree at a very cheap price. For example, if an accident occurs while
cutting a tree, the owner of the property will be solely held liable for damage
caused by the tree and for any damage to the property or any potential injuries
that could happen to anyone in the vicinity. In summary, It is very important to
hire an experienced tree removal  service like Newtown Tree Removal.


NEGOTIATE FOR CHEAPER RATES WITH YOUR TREE SERVICE EXPERT

Understanding the different prices and costs that will incur during this tree
removal project will help you decrease the cost of any tree removal project that
you have in the future. It is essential to know these kinds of information
because without knowing the different prices and costs can lead you to having an
overpriced rate or even an underpriced rate if the tree removal service provider
isn’t experienced or well-equipped unlike other tree removal services in your
area. To reduce costs, you can try avoiding any of the add-on services by
facilitating it and doing it by yourself. Instead of agreeing with them to haul
the chopped logs, you can instead save it, and use it for a barbecue or store
them and use them for firewood when it gets chilly during the winter season. 
Another way of negotiating for cheaper rates is by asking them to leave the
stump and just remove it by yourself later on when you have the time to do it.
The easiest way to do this is by renting a stump shredder, and pull it out
yourself. Renting a stump shredder can cost you between only $100 to $150 a day,
so renting a stump shredder in comparison to paying $1000 to get your stump
removed makes a lot of sense when you’re trying to save on money. Thirdly, once
the whole project is complete you can just handle the excess garbage such as
branches, stems, bark, and leaves by cleaning it yourself. Lastly, it doesn’t
hurt if you just decide to simply ask for a discount from your tree removal
service specialist.

Now that you’re fully informed on the potential costs and average pricing from
most if not all tree removal service companies. You can now get started on your
project without having to worry about it being expensive.

 


4 THINGS TO LOOK FOR WHEN FINDING A GOOD TREE REMOVAL SERVICE

 * Posted September 11, 2020March 11, 2021
 * by i5latree



Are you a homeowner looking to start your own tree removal project? Are you
looking for a tree removal service that would fit your needs and your budget? 
Do you really need to hire a certified arborist for your tree removal project?
These are questions which are commonly asked in the tree removal industry. The
answer may be obvious to many, but oftentimes we try to find a more affordable
alternative, or a way for us to independently remove the trees ourselves with
minimal tree cutting equipment and experience. It is not advisable for
homeowners or property owners to do handle any tree removal related projects on
their own. Although, if you are trying to find to choose the right tree removal
service provider for you, then you have come to the right place. Here are five
things you will need to look out for when you’re looking for the right tree
removal service.


1. YOUR TREE REMOVAL SERVICE MUST BE CERTIFIED

There is a huge difference in experience and knowledge when it comes to hiring a
certified tree removal service versus a non-certified one. If a tree removal
service has the right certification, it will mean that the company has taken the
time to to learn the proper ways to safely prune and remove trees with standards
from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)  and International
Society of Aboriculture (ISA). Another important reason why having a
certification for a tree removal service is because there will be new
discoveries and technologies when it comes to cutting down trees. Also,
companies will have to continually comply with the requirements regarding the
learning of new safety procedures to be able to maintain their certifications.
The certification itself is very important, but it also implies that the owner
of the tree removal service company that you’re working with takes pride in
their work, and is committed to to progressing in the industry. In effect, these
companies with certifications will most likely be more honest with their
customers, and have their best interest in mind.


2. THEY SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT FOR THE JOB

Now that you know certifications are very important when it comes to hiring the
right tree removal service for the job, it is also important to identify whether
or not this company has the appropriate tree removal equipment and tools that is
required to complete the job. There are a few important tools that every tree
removal specialist needs to complete the job. This includes the right sized
pruning tools, tree cutting tools such as a chainsaw or a hatchet, stump removal
tools such as the stump grinders, and the right vehicle to haul the wood away.
It is important to ask your tree removal service company If these tools are
available before starting any project on your property. If the tree removal
service company gives a go ahead with the project without using these tools, it
is probably wiser to look for another company to do the job for you.


3. SAFETY FIRST!

Safety is the utmost important when it comes tree removal projects. If safety is
neglected, not only can it damage you or your neighbor’s property, but it can
also severely injure someone you love or care about in the process. It is
imperative that you hire a tree removal service company that follows the safety
procedures and standards from the OSHA. Among the safety protocols that are
included in the standards OSHA are the requirement of wearing hard hats,
chainsaw chaps, and eye & ear protection. The different between a company that
prioritizes safety and a company that does not is night and day. It can prevent
serious injuries and even fatalities if all the safety standards and procedures
are done correctly.


4. DON’T BE AFRAID TO ASK QUESTIONS

Just like in any industry, it is very important to ask questions especially when
it comes to the safety of you and your property. Not only is asking questions a
good way of gauging the knowledge of the tree removal service company, it is
also important to ask the right questions, so that you can get the answers you
will be looking for during this process. Now that you know the important safety
standards, the right tree cutting equipment and tools, and the kinds of
certifications that companies would need to complete the project, you will be
able to ask the right questions, so that you can finally decide to go for the
right company for the tree removal project that you have been planning.

These are four things that we usually look for, when it comes to hiring the
right tree removal service company for the job. Knowing these will not only help
us with finding the right company, but it will also give us an idea of how much
the average price of cutting down trees will cost us. If you to learn how to
haggle down the price, or even find out if you’re getting a fair estimate for
your tree removal project, you can check out our other articles on the blog
where we address these questions as well.

 


HOW TO ASK THE RIGHT QUESTIONS WHEN HIRING A TREE SERVICE

HOW TO ASK THE RIGHT QUESTIONS WHEN HIRING A TREE SERVICE

Ideally, when you hire a local tree service you get a fair quote, the job gets
completed on time and you’re happy with the completion.  That’s exactly what
would happen when you call a local tree service company in the perfect world! 
But we don’t live in the perfect world.  We live in a capitalist country where
everyone is really just in it for themselves (that’s a topic for another type of
blog!).  It’s real though – there’s getting a fair quote and waiting 8 weeks for
the job to be completed.

It happens all the time.  We see people hire local tree services for anything
from tree trimming to tree removal only to get a quote, put a deposit down and
then have to follow up with said tree service for weeks just to get the job
started.  That’s right – to get the job started, not completed.


TOP 10 QUESTIONS TO ASK A TREE COMPANY YOU’RE THINKING OF HIRING:

 1.  Is your estimate the final price or will there be other costs?
 2.  When will the job be completed by?
 3.  When you say next week, is that an estimate or can I expect the job to be
     completed by then?
 4.  What happens if you get other work that’s more pressing?
 5.  Do you have insurance?
 6.  Do you have a reference that I can call?
 7.  Can you go a little lower than that?
 8.  How long does it take the job to be completed?
 9.  What’s your tree service website?
 10. How long have you been in the tree business?

If they can’t answer simple questions like what’s your tree service website then
they are probably not a reputable tree company.  Every reputable tree company
has a couple things down pat:  website, insurance, references etc.  The other
big question is “Can you go a little lower than that?” because that’s going to
separate the men from the boys.  The tree guys that let you beat them down a few
hundred bucks gave you that quote with justifying it!

Make sure you always try to beat up your tree company for a few hundred bucks. 
If they don’t let you beat them up and their quote is already fair – that’s who
you should use!  Because their quote is justified.  It’s not just a made up
price point that you’ll hopefully say yes to.  There’s a huge difference there.

From everyone on the La Tree Service FAQ team – we hope that you enjoyed this
article and learned something from it.


HOW TO KNOW YOU’RE GETTING A FAIR ESTIMATE FROM A TREE SERVICE

 * Posted May 9, 2020May 9, 2020
 * by i5latree



Getting a Fair Estimate from a Tree Service can be more difficult than you’d
think.  Many Tree Service Estimators will be use big words, talk down their
competition and employ high pressure sales tactics to take an upfront deposit. 
Sometimes those people who seem the nicest during the “Free Estimate” are the
guys that will be ripping you off the worst.  On the other hand there’s friendly
Tree Service Companies that don’t use pressure and give a fair price to their
potential customers.  However, one of their biggest fears is that they’ll be
undercut by what’s known as a pick up truck tree service.

The notorious “pick up truck tree service” is the guy who’s got zero overhead
and willing to give the lowest price every time.  This tree guy is a smooth
talker as well, but little do you know he’s got no insurance.  No insurance
means that you’ll be footing the bill if any of the tree climbers slip on some
wet bark while taking down your oak tree.  No insurance usually means no
licensing too which translates to the tree they are removing falling into your
house and your homeowners insurance not footing the bill.

Here’s How to Know Your Getting a Fair Estimate from a Tree Service from the
Tree Service Company Owners themselves:

I’m Josh with Mr Tree Service of Fairfield Connecticut.  My biggest tip on how
to get a fair estimate is to get 3 estimates.  Not 5, certainly not 10, but 3
estimates.  Don’t choose the highest price and don’t choose the lowest.  Always
go with the middle – that is as long as the middle priced estimate doesn’t show
up in a pick up truck.  Make sure they have a Facebook Page, a listing on Google
and a page on the Better Business Bureau too.

Dear Homeowners, I’m David with New Fairfield Tree Service.  My #1 tip for how
to get a fair estimate is to go with your gut.  If something seems off about the
estimate – trust your instincts.  If the estimator is using big words, ask
questions and have him explain himself.  Always check to make sure their tree
company is licensed and insured.  Never give a deposit.  No true tree company
requires a deposit.  They require a handshake – that’s how thing work!

We hope that these tips on How to Figure Out if You’re Getting a Fair Tree
Service Estimate helps you make the right decision!

Until next time!


HOW TO FIND THE BEST LOCAL TREE SERVICE

 * Posted April 10, 2020June 23, 2021
 * by i5latree



Hiring a local tree service can be more difficult than many realize. Hiring an
employee to come out and do the tree trimming is extremely expensive, and hiring
a contractor to do the trimming is not always cheaper. There are alternatives,
however, for everyone.

You could purchase a trimming shears with a magnifying glass attached to it, and
trim trees, as they have already been trimmed to make sure you don’t cut too
far. The magnifying glass makes it easy to keep an eye on branches that are
reaching towards the ground.

You could also install a motion detector around the perimeter of your yard, so
your children can not touch a tree without being warned. Using the motion
detector is pretty simple – just keep an eye on your children when they are
around a tree, or when a tree that you are working on is in the area. Most alarm
systems will also offer a warning sound when someone approaches the boundaries.
Sam from Paradise Tree Service says that he installs these motion detectors
often and has helped keep families safer.

If you have ever had a tree fall on you while you were working on it, the number
one thing that you need to know is that it was not your fault. This is due to
the fact that trees have a natural tendency to fall over in a storm, and if they
have fallen due to you not watching them carefully, it is most likely because
you were distracted by something else.

You may also want to consider having an opener on your own yard so that you can
take the tree and move it to another part of your yard. There are also several
companies that will come out and remove a tree that you do not want. They will
often charge for this service, but it is not uncommon for them to give you the
cost of the removal quote up front, which means that you get rid of the tree for
free.

You should always start taking care of trees that are growing over the side of
your home, such as overhanggutter trimming. This could include trimming limbs
from overhanging trees, or even moving them away from the side of your home.

Gutters can also be cut out, and their space filled with gravel. You can also
install a solar fence around the edge of your property. This is more expensive
than simply fixing gutters, but you won’t have to worry about the damage that a
gutter might do.

In order to keep the damage of a tree trimming from doing a lot of damage to
your home, you should have a trained person to come out like Litchfield County
Tree Service and examine the site right after the tree is removed. This person
will take a look at all the damage, such as the roots getting behind the house,
or cracks that have opened up in the wood.

If there is a tree that has become damaged because of poor trimming, a tree
service company will fix the problem for you. They may choose to use a
specialist to do the job, or they may choose to bring in a professional to
inspect the damage and repair it themselves.

Even though you have allowed the damage to grow over time, there may be areas
that do not seem to need repairing. If you are planning on doing any work in
these areas, or you want to create a patio around the house, then you should
bring the help of a landscape artist.

Some people may think that a landscaper will cost more than hiring a landscaper
that is experienced in removing possible damage. A landscape artist, however,
does not have to be a professional landscaper, they can hire people to come in
and do the work for them, if they choose.

It can be hard to find the best local tree service, but with the proper research
you can choose the best possible service. Try to find a service that offers a
guarantee of some sort, and do forget to ask for references.
