Learn How To Trim Residential Trees

Lots of people have been teaching themselves to maintain the health of the trees! From planting to mulching and all things in between people have actually begun to work out their horticulture tendencies. Yet in regards to tree trimming it might be best to have a few pointers before you begin working with pruning equipment. Since of course one wrong move and you can kiss your tree bye bye! Here is what you need to know regarding successful DIY tree-trimming:

Think About Safety

Prior to getting started it is important to minimize the risk of injuries even when you are trimming a small tree. Always wear a pair of goggles (this can prevent splinters from getting into your eyes) heavy pruning gloves and a helmet. Additionally make sure that the ladders you use is sturdy and firmly rooted on the ground otherwise you can seriously hurt yourself from a fall. After all your best tree trimming endeavors would go to waste if you wind up in the hospital!

The Key Is In Your Cut

When trimming do not cut any branch too tightly to the trunk of the tree; a risky move like this can backfire as healthy bark will be torn off of the base of the tree when the limb is removed. On the other hand you really do not want to leave a lot of the dead limb. Look for a happy medium by cutting at the collar of the limb which will leave a little bit of a stump.

When To Trim

Most landscaping experts and arborists agree you can trim most trees when ever. You will find a few species of trees along with fruit trees that you will prefer to trim in the fall months but a majority of trees can be trimmed any time of the season.

Do Not Undertake Major Branches

You ought to know the best time to bring in a professional when the job is too big so if you are considering tackling any big limbs yourself lay down the tools and back away. Large branches need to be extracted by a contractor so ask the arborist to deal with these bigger and more hazardous tasks.
