Q: Can you remove a neighbor's tree?

• <div><p>State and local laws vary, but in most cases, you are allowed to trim any branches from your neighbor's tree that cross your property line. However, it's important to ensure you do not damage the overall health of the tree in the process. Removing branches incorrectly can jeopardize the health of the tree and could lead to you being on the hook to replace it.</p></div>

Q: Can I use a chainsaw to kill a tree stump?

• <div><p>You can use a chainsaw, but it won&rsquo;t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion. </p></div>

Q: Is one branch dying on my maple tree a bad sign?

• <div><p>If it&rsquo;s only a smaller branch that has died and you&rsquo;re keeping an eye on the tree, it&rsquo;s probably nothing to worry about. But if other nearby branches start dying off as well, or a very large branch dies, then you likely have a bigger problem. It&rsquo;s time to watch for diseases and other problems and possibly get professional guidance on how to proceed.</p></div>

Q: What signs does a tree show if it’s been struck by lightning?

• <div><p>After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It&rsquo;s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.</p></div>

Q: Can I take down a tree myself?

• <div><p>It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.</p><p>For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.</p><p>Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.</p></div>

"These guys did a great job of removing the trees I had in my yard it was a tight space and most were big pine trees. But they got them down no problem. James was quick to come out and look at what needed to be done . Gave me a very good price and got started. It took load off my mind I was worried about one of the trees falling if we had a big storm. I will be using Panola Treeworks again.
