Are You Ready for Your Tree Trimming?

How Prepared Are You in Trimming the Trees?

Tree trimming has significant benefits. It can improve the health of your trees, protect your properties from unexpected branch fallout, and many more! That is usually the case, however, your luck of getting the desired result will still depend on your skills! So, be prepared. Here are the things you need to consider before conducting the project.

Time

When are you going to do it? It’s not just about having free time. Trimming at the wrong time of the year will do you more damage than good. You see, some fungus and viruses for plants are active during summer and fall. To protect the tree against them, it would be much better to schedule the trimming in winter.

Trees are living materials. Their fresh wounds can attract various botanical diseases so in case you are trimming it to prevent the disease from spreading, you may only make the situation worst by trimming it at the wrong time of the year.

Tools

Do you have the right type of saw for the tree trimming? The most important question there is, do you know how to use it? Saws are dangerous to use, even for professionals. That is why if you are not confident with your arms and the process, working with a tree specialist for the project will never be a bad idea.

Site Preparation

Before you start trimming the trees, remove all the nearby structures. Plan the trimming well. Find out how to keep the cut branches from falling on the roof or even on the public roads.

Safety Measures

Although a lot of professionals can do tree trimming alone, you still need an assistant if you like to DIY. You need an assistant not in cutting but in reporting what is happening underneath the trees. Your assistant is assigned for keeping people or pets from passing through the target space while the operation is ongoing.

Cleaning

Where are you going to bring the cut branches? Are you going to donate it? How about turning it into lumbers or firewoods? It’s not a good idea to keep the branches in front of your lawn. Aside from the fact it consumes space, it may also be home to pests such as termites.
