Why Trees Need Trimming
Trees are vital to Southern Maryland's environment. Not only are they beautiful and provide shade, they provide oxygen, store carbon, stabilize the soil and provide shelter for our wildlife.
Trimming Trees for Health & Safety
If you've heard a loud thud and looked out your window only to find a large tree branch has damaged your car, home or power lines, it's too late. The damage is done.
To maintain a healthy landscape, trees should be checked for disease and dead branches. Trimming a tree to remove dead or broken limbs can result in a healthier tree and a safer environment.
Proper trimming and shaping of trees will also improve weight distribution and make a more attractive tree. If branches rub against each other during windy days, bark will soon disappear attracting insects and disease.
When is the right time to trim a tree?
Trees should be trimmed during fall and winter, their dormant season. During this time trees are less likely to be stressed due to less loss of sap. Insects are less likely to invade the tree. However, if you find dead limbs, they should be removed.
The size of the tree and the location of the branches/limbs to be trimmed can also be dangerous. Over trimming a tree can damage the tree, even kill it.
