"We are SO happy that we found Ethan and Arbor Wise! We overheard one of his employees talking about working for an arborist. We immediately asked him who he worked for, as we had been looking for an arborist for several years, after our prior one had left the business. We could NOT be happier. Arbor Wise is even better than the arborist we had before! They came out for an estimate within a few days, gave us the quote and were done with the job within a short time. Not only did they do a great job of correcting the problems caused by a prior tree trimmer they explained exactly what they were doing and what would need to be done to resolve the mess that had been left behind. They also cleaned up all the debris and left our yard looking so much better than it had in years. We look forward to many years of having Arbor Wise take care of our trees for us! Thank you so much, Ethan and Sean!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

Poison oak is similar to poison ivy in that it's in the same family of plants. Poison oak is identifiable by its rounded-off leaves and hairy leaf texture. Tree-climbing varieties live primarily in western states while low-growing poison oak bushes occupy the eastern states. Treat poison oak like poison ivy to get rid of it permanently.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

To maintain trees on a commercial property, perform regular pruning, monitor for diseases, and apply fertilization to promote healthy growth. It is also important to remove any hazardous branches to keep the trees healthy and prevent potential liability issues.

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.
