Say Goodbye: When is it Time to Remove Your Tree

 

Because they are so beneficial and beautiful, it can be hard to say goodbye to trees. The untrained eye might not be able to see the danger in a tree that looks healthy.

 

Tree removal is usually the last resort if there are no other viable management options, such as trimming or disease prevention. Trees that are damaged, dead, or dangerous can cause thousands in damages, as well as irreparable injuries. Many times, a Tree Removal Kansas City MO will not seem dangerous until a severe storm or heavy snow has exposed its defects.

 

If a tree is not properly removed, then you are responsible for the damage and harm it causes. The good news? You can easily identify if a tree is in trouble simply by inspecting its branches, trunk, and roots.

 

Here are some warning signs to look out for.

 

  • If ..., then it's time you contact an arborist.

 

There are symptoms of infection. A tree with disease symptoms includes crown dieback, bark cracks or distorted leaves, soft crumbly wood, and the presence of fungi. You may notice symptoms such as emergent holes, feeding galleries, or woodpeckers heavy eating on your tree.

 

The crown of the tree can be seen as large, dead branches. These are known as widow-makers. They can cause major damage to the people below and fall for seemingly no reason. If 50% or more of the tree has been damaged or dead, it should be removed.

 

  • How can I hire an experienced arborist?

 

Your tree isn’t growing. Your tree's health is not the same as those around it. You can tell if your tree is healthy by its thin leaf cover, discolored leaves, and slow growth. It may be necessary to consult a professional in order to determine the root cause.

 

Root problems have been identified. Root problems may not be obvious but shifting soil near the base and fungi are signs of trouble.



  • A tree trunk supports a mushroom family.

 

The trunk is in poor health. Internal decay is indicated by cracks in the tree's trunk, massive wounds, dead branch tips, and other signs such as broken or broken branches. Many people don't know that trees can survive for years even with internal degradation. While some trees can survive internal decay and last for a while before succumbing to it, others will soon die. Trees with many trees (also known as "leaders") can develop structural problems later on.

 

The tree has a hollow interior. A tree that has a hollow trunk is in danger. If the inside of the tree is rotting or hollow, it will be necessary to cut off one-third.

 

The tree has started leaning. Even though leaning trees may not be dangerous, a tree that suddenly leans to one end could have structural problems.

 

A house, or any other construction, is too close to the tree. Trees that grow too close to structures, or that hang over the roof, may need removal or pruning. Large trees should not be placed within 20 feet of a structure or house.



  • The Appropriate Tree for an Appropriate Site

 

Trees that are located in forested areas or far from humans and structures may not necessarily need to be taken down. These trees could be a home or sanctuary for woodpeckers and other wildlife.

 

While tree failures may not be predictable, it's comforting that the majority can be avoided through preventative actions. It's a great time to evaluate trees now, before any severe winter storms or snowfall. If you see any of these signs, it is a good idea to contact a professional. Most tree removal jobs are too dangerous for homeowners or property owners.
