Deadwooding Improves Tree Appearance & Your Safety
Landscaping by the Yard Knows What Needs to Go
Trimming dead branches from your trees will improve their appearance and protect them from being damaged by invasive pests that like to burrow into decaying wood. Deadwooding also has safety benefits. Wind and stormy weather can cause dead branches to fall onto buildings or – worse – people.
Deadwooding is also an important factor to maintaining defensible spaces. In the event of a wildfire or a lightning strike, it reduces the amount of fuel available for a fire, lessening the chance of fire leaping from a tree to a home or business.
