Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

The dormant season between winter and late spring, when all the leaves have fallen off, is the best time of year to cut down a tree. Frozen earth is actually preferable for tree removal because it won’t disturb the surrounding landscape as much as it would if you removed the tree during warmer months.

If the tree is very small—under 4 or 5 inches in diameter—and you’re experienced handling a chainsaw, you may be able to cut down the tree on your own, provided there’s plenty of room for it to fall. 

However, felling even small trees can be dangerous, and it’s always advisable to have a spotter on hand. This will help make sure the tree doesn’t fall the wrong way or that branches aren’t about to fall on you while you’re working.

Using a stump grinder is no walk in the park. You’ll need to feel confident using some heavy and dangerous equipment. You’ll also need to know what size chainsaw you’ll need. Factor in the labor for clearing out the debris and filling the hole, and your project becomes quite a laborious one. If you don’t have experience with operating a stump grinder, it might be best to call a professional to do the job for you.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

The basic method of getting rid of bamboo is continuously watering and cutting it using an axe, pruners, or mower until the roots have been exhausted of their energy stores. However, most professionals find that digging up bamboo to remove underground shoots called rhizomes is the most effective method.
