"Midwest Tree Surgeons did a great job of removing a 60 year old sweet gum tree in our backyard. No damage was done to a chain link fence directly below one side, and they even relocated two, heavy, concrete bird baths until they were finished. The owner, Christian, is a licensed arborist and actually did all of the climbing. He even returned today, a Sunday, to remove chips left from the stump grinding. My only complaint was the ruts left in the lawn from their tractor tires. This company gave us the lowest bid, and I have already referred them to a friend."

"Amazing communication, professionalism, and price. Trained arborists made short work of the job. They artfully worked around dangerous obstacles without incident or delay, taking the extra time to leave the work area cleaner than they found it. I was very impressed. The crew was not at all intimidated by navigating obstacles in the city. I will definitely be calling Baumann again for future jobs."

"I contacted STL Tree Services about a tree that I had that potentially needed to be removed. They came out and gave me a quote that I was really happy with. The quote included stump and root removal, which was what I wanted. They recommended removing the tree for multiple reasons, which I agreed with. They also let me know that there might be damage to the grass in my yard due to the equipment being used to remove the stump and roots. The crew came out to perform the removal and did a great job. They were fast and took care of the clean up. One of the guys gave me a heads up about any roots that might be left and explained that they would have to tear up quite a bit of my yard to remove them. He recommended that I leave them since they were small and shouldn’t hurt the lawnmower. He also gave me some recommendations regarding other trees that I had in my yard. When they left, there really wasn’t that much damage to my yard. I was originally a little nervous about how much damage would occur since I saw a few other reviewers mention it. It was pretty minor in my opinion, but I had also avoided watering in that area to make sure the ground would be dry when they came. Overall I had a great experience and was really impressed with the crew. The only thing that I wish had been a little better was the communication that I had with the office. I found out that they only call you a week before they are scheduled to come out and perform the service. It wasn’t really that big of a deal, but it was a few weeks before they got to me so I began to question whether or not they forgot about me. However, the office was quick to reply to my phone call and email when I reached out asking about this. I also found out that there would be a fee if you used a credit card. If I had known that ahead of time then I would have just wrote a check and given it to the crew. Now I have to mail a check to avoid the fee. Once again, really not the end of the world, but would have been nice to know ahead of time. I would absolutely recommend this company to my friends!"

"Great work. Showed up on time. Team hit the ground running. Due to space considerations and the size of the tree, the crew had to drop the tree manually. They moved yard “stuff” (birdbath , etc.) that might be in the trees path. Very professional. Team constantly raking and picking up debris. When they were done they left a very clean space behind, with no yard divots and only a little sawdust. We had a very large tree, and they had it down and out in four hours. Victor was our contact and he was very professional and explained every step of the process. Highly recommend. We are scheduling A & M for additional tree work in the fall."

"Mr. Baumann was relatively punctual in responding to my phone call for an appointment (given that it was summer and a prime season for tree work). He came out to the house within a few days, assessed the work, gave the price and estimated when the team would be out to do the work. His crew was very efficient, did exactly as planned and cleaned up completely. We were very satisfied with the entire experience. They even trimmed so that the remaining branches on our side were rather artfully cut --- not an electric company straight line."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

If you don’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.

No, you cannot throw branches from your neighbor’s tree back into their yard, nor can you discard leaves or other plant matter that originated from their yard back over there if it happens to land in your yard. You are responsible for cleaning up plant matter that made its way into your yard.

Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to get creative with this tree remnant. 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.

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.
