3 Important Reasons To Hire A Tree Service Today
Do you have one or more large trees in your yard? How long has it been since you had these trees looked at or trimmed by a professional? Many people assume that trees can do fine on their own since they can grow in forests without the help of any human. While this is technically partially true, a tree growing next to your home is not the same as a tree that is in the forest. There are several reasons why you should have your trees checked out and pruned if no annually then every other year. Some of the most important reasons include:
1. Shed limbs: Sometimes, a tree limb dies off for no apparent reason. While it could be because of obvious damage or disease, it could simply be that the tree has sent most of its nutrients elsewhere instead of supporting that limb. When this happens, the limb will eventually break off and come crashing to the ground.
When this happens in the forest, this is rarely a serious matter. But when a tree that is next to your home sheds its limb instead of having a local tree service remove it first, the branch could be so large as to damage anything that happens to be below, including injuring any humans or animals.
2. Stop disease: Most of the time in a forest, if one or two trees out of hundreds get a fungus or some other disease, they may die, but the rest of the forest will still live on. But when you only have one or two trees on your entire property, having them infected with some sort of disease could be extremely detrimental.
If they die off, they could pose a hazard to your home or the disease could spread to other nearby trees, angering your neighbors. A professional tree service should be able to halt the progression of many diseases before they cause serious issues or can remove the tree entirely before it has died enough to become a hazard.
3. Healthier trees: If there is nothing currently wrong with your trees, this is all the more reason to call in a tree service as a preventative measure. The tree service professionals can remove limbs that are likely to be an issue later. This includes things like limbs that have crossed and are rubbing against each other, limbs that are too close together and are blocking airflow, and more. Just as a human should visit a doctor regularly for a checkup, a tree needs care and attention to stay healthy.
