As the cool winds from autumn start to settle in, trees become a beautiful view in your home. While fall is a feast for the eyes, it’s also the perfect time to check the health of your trees. Ignoring signs of disease, decay, or even structural damage can lead to your tree being in danger. In this article, there will be key indicators that your tree might need professional attention from Green Pine Tree Services this fall.
Visible Damage & Structure Issues
Visible signs of damage in trees can be dead or falling branches. If you start noticing tree limbs dropping, it could be a potential sign of internal decay or even disease. Dead branches are also a safety risk to you, your home, and even vehicles. At Green Pine Tree Services we can examine and even determine if pruning or removal is necessary.
Fungus or Mushrooms
Many people think mushrooms are harmless, however, mushrooms at the base of a tree could indicate rot or decay inside the tree. Fungal growth means that the tree’s root system is compromised. At Green Pine Tree Services we can inspect and determine the extent of the damage and see if the tree is salvageable.
Discolored Leaves: Even during the Fall
During the Fall, leaves naturally change color and fall during Autumn. However, irregular spotting, curling, or premature leaf drop can be a sign of disease or even pest infestation. If only parts of the tree are changing color, the tree may be stressed or potentially infected. However, catching these signs early can help save your tree.
Pest Infestation
Pests such as borders, aphids, or even beetles often leave signs.
- Small holes in bark.
- Sawdust-like material.
- Sticky residue on leaves.
Pests like such, can damage your tree over time. At Green Pine Tree Services we offer in-site consultations such as a general health and condition of existing trees by our certified arborists and even identification of potential problems and recommend courses of action.
What Fall is the Right Time to Act
Fall is an ideal season for tree inspections. As leaves soon begin to fall, it is easier to spot external and structural issues. Cooler Autumn temperatures make it easier and safer to perform necessary check-ups or maintenance. Addressing tree problems soon helps prevent emergency calls or check-ups.
