Wood River Tree Trimming and Pruning
Tree trimming and pruning is a difficult and hazardous job. Most people don't realize all of the considerations that go into coming up with a plan to maintain healthy trees. We'll touch briefly on some of the things that an arborist looks at when assessing your property.
- Outline the reasons for tree pruning - Discuss the different tree trimming and pruning techniques that can be used - Describe the tools and equipment that are used - Provide an overview of the safety considerations involved In arboriculture, tree pruning is the selective removal of sections of a tree to direct its growth, shape it, or reduce the risk of damage. It is a common practice with both aesthetic and functional purposes, and is carried out for a variety of reasons, including health, safety, and utility. It is just one of the steps in proper tree services. There are a number of different techniques that can be used for tree pruning, and the appropriate method will depend on the type of tree, its location, and the desired outcome. For example, trees that are grown for timber may be pruned to encourage straight growth, while fruit trees may be pruned to increase yield. Pruning can be carried out using a variety of tools, including pruning shears, saws, and axes. In some cases, chemical treatments may also be used. For very tall trees, heavy machinery will most likely need to be brought in to assist the tree care expert to safely reach the upper areas of the trees. Safety should be at the top of every homeowners list as well as the company you hire. Protective equipment such as hard hats, gloves and goggles, just to mention a few, should be used as well as harnesses and stabilizing equipment when dealing with heights. Your tree care professionals should have all of these safety measures in place along with an emergency contingency plan should something go not as planned. It is very important to consider safety when choosing to do the job yourself or deciding on a company to trust with your business.
