Q: How long does a bird's nest last?

• <div><p>The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.</p></div>

Q: What’s the best time of the year to prune shade trees?

• <div><p>Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter&mdash;between February and March. That&rsquo;s because it&rsquo;s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.</p></div>

Q: Can you hire someone to move a tree?

• <div><p>Yes, you can hire professionals to move a tree. Arborists and tree transplanting companies specialize in this type of work and use equipment like hydraulic tree spades to safely extract and relocate trees with their root balls intact. Since tree moving is a complex process, especially for larger trees, it&rsquo;s best left to experts who understand how to protect the tree&rsquo;s health and ensure the safety of everyone involved. </p></div>

Q: Can you water a new tree too much?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to overwater a newly-planted tree. Daily watering is great for the first few weeks, but it&rsquo;s important not to go overboard. Excessive watering can lead to various problems, including root rot, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-common-tree-diseases.htm">fungal diseases</a>, and a lack of root development.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you don’t cut down a tree?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.</p></div>
