Why Care for Trees?
Tree Care Can Reduce the Risk of Disease
Healthy trees are better equipped to withstand stress from things like drought, insects, and disease better than struggling trees.
Taking steps to optimize good health and preventative care gives us the best chance at fighting an illness or minimizing the negative effects that residential trees face.
✓ Healthy trees provide shade, clean air, and natural beauty
✓ Well-maintained trees increase property value
✓ Proper care prevents safety hazards from weak or diseased trees
Common Tree Challenges
✓ Insect Infestations: Pests can damage or kill trees if left unchecked
✓ Soil Issues: Urban soil often lacks nutrients trees need to grow strong
✓ Diseases: Various diseases can affect tree health and appearance
✓ Space Constraints: Limited growing space in cities can stunt tree growth
