Should I cut down a dead palm tree?

• <div><p>Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:</p><ul><li><p>The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.</p></li><li><p>The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.</p></li><li><p>The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Is it better to plant small or large trees?

• <div><p>It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. </p><p>On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.</p></div>

Q: What if I want to cut down a tree next to a power line?

• <div><p>Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it&rsquo;s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.</p></div>

Q: Do spotted lanternflies kill trees and plants?

• <div><p>According to scientists at <a href="https://www.psu.edu/news/agricultural-sciences/story/spotted-lanternfly-lore-penn-state-experts-clear-falsehoods-about-pest/">Penn State University</a>, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.</p></div>

Q: How do you stop tree roots from growing without killing the tree?

• <div><p>You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.</p></div>

The crew did excellent work but more importantly they exhibited good ethics and customer service dedication. As a small business owner myself, I was able to empathize with some events that occurred and was impressed by how they handled them with me.
