Can I remove a small tree from my yard?

• <div><p>You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.</p></div>

Why is it not okay to cut down trees?

• <div><p>Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tree-trimming-crown-reduction-versus-tree-topping.htm">crown reduction</a> before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.</p></div>

Q: What will naturally kill a tree?

• <div><p>In nature, there are many things that can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-do-trees-die.htm">cause a tree to die</a>, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.</p></div>

Q: Do tree roots grow after a tree is cut down?

• <div><p>Whether tree roots will regrow after the tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some eventually tree roots die, as they lack photosynthesis; however, others can resprout from the roots and even produce new growth for up to seven years or more, if they belong to a species that reproduces through root sprouts. </p></div>

Q: What factors affect tree removal costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.</p></div>
