"My two trees were so tall and unruly because of many years of wind and birds. I was very impressed with their work and they did all of my extra requests. They cleaned up so nice afterwards and even talked to my neighbors so that they were also satisfied."

"It is shockingly expensive to hire professional arborists. HOWEVER, it is VITAL to the life of the tree to get expert assistance. It is definitely worth the money to have these experts help care for a very big tree. Excellent job, professional attitudes, very satisfactory performance with top-notch results. Will recommend and re-hire!"

"My special needs cat got stuck in a 30 ft tree for 2 days, and a search said we should call an arborist to get him. The first couldn't do it but recommended these guys. And they were great. Fast, professional, and friendly, if a little confused at first about what we were asking for. Since this was an oddball request for them. Even this review was hard as, there isn't any service for " helped save our cat". We really can't thank them enough."

"There was evidence of termites when construction began so the builder assumed I would need a full termite service. Hydrex inspected and found termite problem is in the past. Could have easily jacked me up for some kind of service but instead they were honest and did not even charge for the inspection. So grateful!"

His son, Robert B. Loibl, Jr., began working and learning from his father after school and on Saturdays. He later started the Lloyd Pest Control Company in San Diego, and was a partner with his father in L & N Pest Control. He also started the Ant-B-Gone Products Company in Los Angeles, California, and then the Pest Control Service Company and Hydrex Pest Control Co., Inc. in Los Angeles, California in 1946. Robert Jr. spent his life paving the way to say good riddance to pests.
As well as developing a very successful state wide franchise with Hydrex Pest Control, he also held a number of patents. He invented the B-Gone series of pest poisons that many remember, a vermin exterminator, and the Pestron machine for producing insecticidal vapor. He developed many of the methodologies used today.  He was committed to keeping where we live, work and play safe and healthy places. He grew his company with men committed to his standards. They are family men, many of whom have p

"I can't say enough about the professionalism and excellent service Torres Tree Service provides clients. I initially contacted them and they were able to go to my property and give me a quote without my having to meet them. The price they gave was very competitive, and we eventually negotiated a final price that beat the competition. They showed up to the property promptly at 8:30 am and were done with the job in under two hours. They were fast, clean, and very professional. Their entire process, from making the appointment, to confirmation emails and calls, to follow-up and follow-through, was exceptional. A true five-star experience.

"Pine Tree was professionally removed and a stump grinder was used to remove the stump. While grinding, a screen was put up to protect the house from damage. Adrian and his staff were very professional and did a good job cleaning up. Cost was very reasonable."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

You’ll want to have your palm trees trimmed during the spring, ideally in May, before hurricane season sets in, which generally takes place during the late summer. Palm trees grow fastest over the summer months. You’ll also want to trim your palm trees when you notice:

  • Brown fronds 

  • Dry leaves

  • Flower pods

  • Fruit

  • Fronds overgrown in power lines

  • Frond encroaching upon your neighbor’s home or yard 

  • Visible damage from a storm

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.
