Q: What is the best month to trim palm trees?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;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&rsquo;ll also want to trim your palm trees when you notice:</p><ul><li><p>Brown fronds </p></li><li><p>Dry leaves</p></li><li><p>Flower pods</p></li><li><p>Fruit</p></li><li><p>Fronds overgrown in power lines</p></li><li><p>Frond encroaching upon your neighbor&rsquo;s home or yard </p></li><li><p>Visible damage from a storm</p></li></ul><p></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: Do I have to remove a tree stump?

• <div><p>Unless there&rsquo;s some sort of rule in your community&rsquo;s homeowners&rsquo; association that requires you to remove a stump, there&rsquo;s no law that says you have to take it out. If you&rsquo;re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tree-stump-ideas-your-yard.htm">get creative with this tree remnant</a>. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump. </p></div>

Q: Does ivy kill trees?

• <div><p>Ivy eventually kills trees by restricting its growth, blocking sunlight, absorbing nutrients and water from the soil, and weakening the tree. Trees with ivy are more likely to experience diseases, pests, rot, and fungi growth. When ivy weighs down tree branches, the tree is more likely to break during a storm and cause damage.</p></div>

Q: What is the fastest way to kill tree roots?

• <div><p>The speed of your tree root removal process depends on a few different factors, including the size and type of tree. However, the fastest method of killing tree roots is applying chemical herbicide, which starts working quickly and efficiently. But this removal method has its drawbacks, such as having a negative effect on the surrounding vegetation and landscaping. Other options like rock salt and stump grinding work relatively quickly and cause less damage to your yard.</p></div>

"I was very happy with the work Cormier Tree Service did and can recommend them. Max and Nick were on time for both days of work. They were professional and friendly. They climb the trees to do their work. It was impressive to watch as they moved through the trees and I noted they always had two safety ropes in place before doing any cutting. They were concerned with the health of the trees which I also appreciated. Overall I am very happy with the new look of the trees."
