Deadwood removal is one of the many preventative services homeowners request in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. As the process of systematically removing dead branches from a tree’s canopy, the removal of deadwood is different than regular tree trimming. Since deadwood presents a large variety of safety hazards it is best to have it removed as soon as it is noticed. The reason being is that dead branches are extremely unpredictable and can fall at any time, creating a dangerous situation for any people or property located below.
However, just because a tree has deadwood doesn’t’ mean it’s necessarily unhealthy. Rather a certified arborist can cut back any dead branches, preserving the life of a tree for a number of years. That’s why the certified arborist at Westcoast Tree Care would like to provide you with the following top reasons you should have deadwood removed.
Safety
The most important reason deadwood should be removed is to keep a tree as safe and hazard-free as possible. This includes protecting the people and property below. Deadwood can fall unexpectedly at any time it can hurt someone or even cause death. Deadwood can also cause significant property damage if it falls on a roof, car or other structure.
Aesthetics
Unless you own a haunted house, deadwood won’t boost the curb appeal of your Coeur d’Alene home. When you hire a certified arborist, dead branches will be cut to maintain a tree’s natural and distinct beauty. Not only will the removal of deadwood improve the stability of a tree by removing excess weight, it will allow more light to filter through, improving the aesthetics of your tree as well.
Health
Taking into consideration the overall health of a tree, deadwood removal will help minimise additional risks of disease and infestations. Dead, rotting branches are also susceptible to fungal problems that can spread to other parts of a tree. By not removing deadwood, disease and infestation will eventually spread causing further damage or death to a tree.
