"A Best Tree service does an A+ job EVERY TIME. I have been using them for at least 15 years to keep our shrubs trimmed and trees, including 3 Huge Red Oaks and a huge Pecan pruned and in good health. Jesus always returns my calls right away and usually will come by the next day to look at the job and give me a great price. I rarely make comments in this manner, but Jesus and his men deserve the praise!"

"The crew showed up on time and ready to get to work. After confirming what I wanted done - several trees trimmed, 3 removed, and stump grinding - the crew got busy. The three men on my job were friendly and professional. Once the work was complete they did an excellent job of cleaning up the property. Great experience!!!"

"I lost three big (25+ ft) Mexican Fan Palms to freezing temperatures two winters ago. Two of them were dead and within inches of my roof. The third was dead and located right in the corner of my yard, where my fence meets three other properties' fences. So the risk of removing all three trees without damage was extremely high. I heard about Longhorn Tree Service through word-of-mouth so I gave Tony a call. He responded quickly, gave me a fair and competitive estimate, and arrived on time for the job after I hired him. He and his crew expertly removed all three trees with no damage to my house or my fence. Literally, not a single scratch to any structure. Then, after the job was complete, they cleaned the yard of debris and raked up the loose trimmings. They left my yard and my grass in better condition than when they started. Very happy with this service! I recommend Tony to everyone looking for professional arborist services. He's an expert at his craft. I highly recommend Longhorn Tree Service."

"They are the best, from the first branches to the final clean up. Very safety conscious, they protected my deck and landscaping. They answered questions I had as the job progressed. It was a great team of four hardworking men. They even seemed to have fun working together. I recommend them without any reservation."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If it’s only a smaller branch that has died and you’re keeping an eye on the tree, it’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’s time to watch for diseases and other problems and possibly get professional guidance on how to proceed.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.

If you’re taking down a tree that you don’t suspect is affected by disease or pests and it’s nowhere near your home or other structures, then calling in a tree company should work fine. However, anything more involved means an arborist is a better option. These pros have years of experience with tree removal and can safely take down trees located next to structures, and they have the tools, sanitization equipment, and experience to remove sick or dying trees without infecting nearby trees. 

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.
