"Aaron's Tree service was very prompt and professional. Within minutes of inquiring for service, I had received a phone call and setup an appointment for a quote. They have completed the job a few days later for a minor tree trimming. Overall very pleased with the service and will use again in the future."

"I hired AMG to remove a stump and they not only removed the stump they went above and beyond and took care of the entire root system so the gas company could bury our line. If I ever need tree service again I am calling them for sure."

"Kevin and only one other worker cut down and removed 5 trees, This was done over 2 days, They worked about 5 hours the first and had to stop because some rain was coming, they finished the next day in about 5 hours, I will hire him again in the future since I have more trees to remove, They did a great job and raked up and all branches, He did not drive any of his heavy equipment over the yard where my septic field was."

"I have a 30 year old Magnolia tree that needed trimming, and I was very afraid to let someone trim it because I don't want to lose the tree. Dino and his crew came out,assessed the job and came promptly on the service date. He also suggested trimming the front trees. He took care of all of them and did a great job. Very happy with the service and would definitely refer them or hire them again if needed."

"They are a family business with a wonderful work ethic. They took two large trees down, chipped the branches, cut the trunk to log-length for me and did a thorough clean-up when finished. Would highly recommended Ace Tree Service for you needs."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.

According to scientists at Penn State University, 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.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn’t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree’s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and oak wilt. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.

Many consider the Fraser fir to be the most popular type of Christmas tree, but which type of tree sells out near you can depend on region and decorating trends that year. For example, the Leyland cypress is especially popular in the Southeast, according to the National Christmas Tree Association.
