"On Saturday, June 9, 2018, I hired A&A Lawn Care to do a HUGE job of cleaning-up an ENORMOUS amount of ivy that had overgrown and overtaken most of the tall trees and bushes in my VERY LARGE backyard!!! Not only did the guys remove ALL the overgrown ivy in my immediate yard, but they climbed up into the trees and onto VERY tall ladders and removed the ivy that was NOT only in MY trees, but they removed ALL the ivy from the trees in the yards adjacent to my yard so that the ivy wouldn't become overgrown again!!! Needless to say, I was ELATED and so were ALL my surrounding neighbors!!! I've worked BOTH construction AND landscaping when I was younger and I can tell you, these guys worked their behinds off!!! Not only did they do SUCH a BEAUTIFUL job, but they THOROUGHLY cleaned-up after they were finished!!! Also, these guys were a GREAT PLEASURE to work with!!! I was SO IMPRESSED by their work and work ethic that, I hired them to do the FINAL landscaping on BOTH my front and backyards!!! Thank-you A&A Lawn Care for doing SUCH an AMAZING job!!! God Bless You, Julie Mc-T., Salida, Ca."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Burning yard waste can be an efficient method for large amounts. However, burning has health and environmental risks. Smoke can aggravate respiratory conditions, expose you to carbon monoxide, and cause irritation. Fire produces greenhouse gases and may start wildfires. Minimize risks by burning clean, dry, natural materials. Stay upwind and monitor the fire closely.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

Post-dethatching, lawn recovery includes watering, fertilizing, and reseeding as necessary to restore health and promote growth.

The most cost-effective approach to land clearing is DIY-ing what you can, such as removing brush, small saplings, and other more manageable tasks. Then, contact a tree cutting pro to finish the job for the larger vegetation and trees on your property. Get multiple quotes, look for off-season discounts, and scope out all your options to keep things as budget-friendly as possible.

Dead trees are dangerous for several reasons. They are structurally compromised and prone to branch or trunk failure, which can pose a significant safety risk to people, vehicles, and nearby structures. Dead trees can also harbor pests like termites, which may spread to other trees or your home. If a tree died from a disease, it could spread the illness to healthy trees. Additionally, the dry wood is highly flammable, increasing fire risk.
