Living in Florida, we all know that hurricane season is as much a part of life as sunny days and beautiful beaches. But while we can’t control the weather, we can certainly prepare for it, especially when it comes to the trees that make our yards so beautiful.
Living here means being familiar with the potential impacts of hurricane season. In addition to these devastating storms, Florida also experiences the highest proportion of lightning strikes, rain occurrences, and high winds during this season.
All these disturbances can take a toll on your trees, increasing the chances that they’ll uproot unexpectedly or that weak branches will break off and cause collateral damage. This potential damage can easily be lessened with proper tree assessment and service.
“One of the smartest things you can do to ensure your landscape survives a storm intact is selecting and planting wind-resistant tree species away from any structures on your property. While the trees closest to your house or utility lines aren’t any more susceptible to storm damage than other trees, they can be a lot more destructive. When storms come, the trees that matter most are the trees that threaten you and your family’s safety. By nature of their location, these trees are the most important to inspect and service first to ensure that there are no surprises when a storm hits,” noted James Maltby, owner and operator of Maltby’s Tree Service and Landscaping.
To have safe and healthy trees, it’s essential to have your trees inspected and pruned annually. This can be done quickly and will save you money in the long run. In most cases, maintaining trees is far less expensive than removing and replacing them. This can help assure that your trees are healthy while it reduces risk of storm damage to your home or property, stated Maltby.
Trees at risk that need professional service can have:
Dead or partially attached limbs hung up in higher branches
Overly dense canopies
Hollow or signs of decaying areas on the trunk or main limbs
Peeling bark or gaping wounds in the trunk
Branches that are rubbing each other or rubbing wires on your home or business
Branches that are touching or laying on your rooftop
Low hanging branches that obstruct the street or sidewalk
Branches that appear diseased or insect infested
