Tree removal can be a big decision to make. And it is helpful to have some advice on whether it is the right decision to do. Here are some questions which may give you some clarity as to whether tree removal is the best option for your tree.

 

1. Is your tree dying, badly diseased or infested by insects?

If your tree is dying, badly diseased or has a terrible insect infestation, depending on where it is located on your property, it may be best to remove it. Tree removal is best for dying, badly infested or diseased trees that might damage property or injure a person. If your tree is close to buildings on your property like your house, shed or garage or overhangs your driveway, walkway, sidewalk, backyard or pool, then tree removal is likely the best choice.

 

2. Is one side of your tree dead but the other side living?

Having one side of tree dead while the other side is healthy is an indication that there may be root or trunk damage on the affected side. These trees are potentially dangerous as the dead branches have the potential to fall and damage property or injure a person.

 

3. Is your tree a desirable species?

Many people have trees growing on their property but hardly know what tree species they are. Here are some other undesirable trees: willows, mulberry, black locust, box elder, poplars and a few others. If you have these trees growing on your property, tree removal is a good option. These trees are known to be weak and prone to breaking limbs and dropping large quantities of branches and leaves. Some of these trees are very prone to be infested by insects and others. If you have one of these tree types or if you are unsure as to the tree species you have on your property, give Arborcraft Tree Service a call at 03-9913-5195 and we can tell you exactly the species of tree.

 

4. Does your tree have trunk damage?

If your tree has severe damage to the trunk or has large vertical cracks along the trunk, then tree removal is needed. These types of injuries to a tree usually suggest there is an internal decay. A hollow trunk in a tree is very dangerous as the tree is weakened at its core. Tree removal is the best course of action.

 

5. Is the tree planted in an area with adequate space to grow?

If you have a large property and are looking to landscape it to be similar to a forest, then planting shade trees close together is fine. The trees will grow together into one large canopy. If a tree grows too big and is always overhanging the roof of your house, it may need to be removed. This is to protect your roof from damage as well as your eaves. Tree roots can also interfere with your plumbing system if they are located too close to your house.

Transplanting trees seem like an uncomplicated job, but the fact is many of them could die if the work is done incorrectly. Exposing roots to the air is not a pleasant experience for trees, and not all species survive the ordeal. However, if your landscape design calls the need to transfer a tree to a new location, you are likely to be successful if you know the proper methods.

Plants cannot show the same signs of sickness as animals and humans. They can't whine about body pains to let you know. So how can we tell when a tree is unwell When a tree is sick, it might develop sores on its bark or lean more to one side. Another sign is dead stems or branches that fall off the tree. If any of these symptoms occur, the tree you're looking at is possibly sick.

Pruning for tree health focuses on cutting off dead, diseased, and dying branches and branches that rub together. Pruning can also be used to nurture trees to develop a strong structure and lessen the likelihood of damage during harsh weather. Pruning for form can be incredibly essential on open-grown trees that do very little self-pruning.

The soil supports most living organisms, being the top source of their mineral nutrients. Good soil management guarantees that mineral elements do not become toxic or deficient to crops, plants, and trees. Soil management is essential to trees, environmental sustainability, productivity, and human health, so It’s crucial to know what’s happening beneath the ground. Cultivating the right soil type will make trees grow and live longer, even in urban locations with less room for them to thrive.
