🌀Storm Preparedness Tips for Hurricane Season🌀   Xylem Tree Care is offering preparation services to help secure your trees before any potential tropical systems arrive. While in some cases, declining or hazardous trees may need to be removed, other situations simply call for proper pruning of mature trees. Cleaning the crown or hazard pruning is often the first approach in preparing for hurricane season. This will actually help strengthen the tree. Following the hazard pruning, Xylem will reduce the weight at the end of the branches to minimize the risk of breakage. Within a tree’s crown, thinning methods allow wind to flow through the canopy, rather than pushing on it. Proper thinning to improve air movement within the crown also increases light penetration. To prepare your trees for hurricane season, call 833-544-8733 or visit XylemTreeCare.com and let our certified arborists help with a pre-storm inspection, to secure your trees before severe weather arrives.
