Why Your Trees Need Professional Pruning

Pruning a tree too late or incorrectly can cause damage to the structure of its tissue and perhaps this may even slowly kill your tree. Annual tree inspections will help identify potential problems before they become too costly or dangerous, such as leaning or dry rot. Arborists recommend spring and fall inspections; this is best during November through March’s rainy season.

When a tree is not pruned when needed, there is less strength in the limbs and trunk. Less strength in the limbs makes them more susceptible to strong winds. Not getting rid of deadwood can cause insects and fungus to attack, creating disease in the tree’s trunk. Also, not pruning branches can cause the limbs to be turned upwards towards buildings and power lines.
