Q: Why hire a professional to remove tree stumps?

• <div><p>Ensures complete removal and mitigates risks of underground root damage.</p></div>

Q: How does vinegar kill ivy on trees?

• <div><p>White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.</p></div>

Q: Is it bad to leave a dead tree stump in the ground?

• <div><p>It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It&rsquo;s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it&rsquo;s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.</p></div>

Q: When should a tree be cut down?

• <div><p>A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that&rsquo;s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it&rsquo;s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/arborists/">hire a local arborist</a> who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.</p></div>

Q: How do you prune and shape a plum tree?

• <div><p>Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They&rsquo;ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.</p></div>
