Tree Planting
You may have that extra space in your garden to plant a tree, but which tree you should plant is a big question. Right? You may wish to have an evergreen tree for lush greenery in your backyard but for that you may have to call for land clearing services to make room for the new tree. But, before making your desire come true, learn about trees that you should never plant. After all, the planning of tree planting begins with deciding which tree to plant and not. So, here is a list of trees that should never be planted at home:

1. Cottonwood: Do you know it is illegal to plant cottonwood tree in Dallas County. In case you are not a resident of Dallas County thinking of planting the cottonwood can be killer, why? The cottonwood trees are dioecious. There are male cottonwood tree and a female cottonwood tree. By any chance, if you plant the female cottonwood tree you will be left to deal with big issues such as cotton fluff all over your yard.

2. Sweetgum: The tree sweetgum sounds cute but they are actually prickly. The tree produces small spike balls or the fruits. Accidentally stepping on them can cause you injury. The tree can be chemically treated but the cost of treatment is quite expensive.

3.   Silver Maple: Silver Maple trees are weak in and are prone to fall off easily. Their trunk is weak and is prone to catching diseases. With silver maple planted in your yard, you may have to spend most of your time treating and securing the plant.

4. Quaking Aspen: If your soil has too much of nutrients and want something to just suck it up, Quaking Aspen is the tree for you. The tree has a weird property that sucks up all the nutrients from the soil.

5. Linden: This tree in your backyard can give you a reason to take bath frequently. Standing underneath you may get a sticky substance on your body. The sticky substance is aphids poop that you would never like to touch.
​
So, these were five of the trees that you would never like to plant in your backyard.

You may need to cut down trees on the off chance that they are dead, infected, congested or planted in the wrong place. Cutting a tree down yourself can spare you cash, yet can likewise be unsafe. Arranging and legitimate readiness are essential. Cutting down trees can be risky if an untrained arrangement of hands do it, so you have to avoid potential risk. Try not to endeavor to cut the tree in the event that you are physically unfit, worn out or generally impeded. Try not to endeavor to work a cutting tool without understanding or preparing. 
​
Tree trimming activities carry the risk of potential injuries, including electrocutions, amputations, crushing injuries etc. Hazards to consider include slips, trips, falls; insect and animal bites, hand and portable power tools, and environmental conditions. The most important step in the tree-trimming process is a preliminary site assessment. Survey the job area to determine the hazards present and what controls need to be implemented before starting the job.

Contact the utility company to discuss de-energizing and grounding or shielding of power lines. Do not yourself advance to trimming activities which is within ten feet of a power line. These must be done by trained and experienced line-clearance tree trimmer only. Use extreme caution when moving ladders and equipment around downed trees and power lines.

Assemble the instruments previously you begin and play out any required support. Utilize a little cutting apparatus for trees 10 crawls in width or less and medium cutting apparatuses for trees with a 10-to 18-inch breadth. Review the tree before you begin cutting. Set up the site to ensure it will be protected. Ensure kids and pets are well far from the region. Select two escape ways that lead far from the tree's expected falling heading.

Cut trees utilizing the three-cut strategy. Make the main cut in favor of the tree confronting the heading you wish the tree to fall. Cut on a level plane into the tree. Influence the second slice 2 to 3 to crawls underneath the first. Slice at an upward edge to meet the principal cut. Make the third cut on the tree's contrary side. Cut on a level plane into the tree, 2 crawls over the main cut. Saw close to part of the way through the tree.

TREE STUMPS REMOVAL

Tree Stumps Removal
​Sometimes, we are required to cut tree growing in our backyards when they are prone to damage our home or are getting infected with tree diseases. It is often necessary to remove hazardous and or declining trees. Cutting such trees is a difficult task but tree stumps removal is considered more cumbersome than cutting the trees. We should always be extra careful while doing stumps removal.

After a tree is removed the remaining stump can be eliminated in a variety of ways.  The most common way to get rid of tree stumps is to have them ground below ground level. Often professional tree removal companies will do stump grinding. If the stump is not too large it could be removed whole, without grinding, but this is impractical for larger tree stumps. Alternatively it could be chopped up and used as firewood.

When old tree stumps are left to rot in the middle of a lawn or backyards, it reduces the value of the property fast compared to properties with well-maintained landscapes. Tree stump removal is the process of removing these eyesores completely.

Once the stump is removed or ground down to a level well below the surface, the best method of repairing the hole left in the ground is to fill with topsoil and seed with grass that matches the surroundings. Fill this hole with topsoil that is similar to the surrounding soil.

Local Tree cutters

When it comes to cutting trees it’s never really about just cutting trees. Tree cutting is a highly technical job and should not be entrusted to just anyone. If done wrong, tree cutting can cause some serious damages and problems. This is why when you survey for local tree cutters it is a must that you check their credentials and experience.
​
Anybody can just buy a chainsaw at the local store and call himself a tree cutter. So you have to double check that the tree service companies you are considering are professionals. Unfortunately, there are dishonest people everywhere that are quite convincing that it may be easy to be fooled by them. So do your research. Take extra time to look into their credentials. Make sure the tree service company you hire is both licensed and insured.

Other than the credentials, you need to confirm their experience too. Although a company might be licensed, they may not necessarily have the experience. A company that is inexperienced is more likely to mess up and butcher your tree. It is wiser to pick a local tree cutter that has been around for years to ensure they deliver on the service you require.

We, at Port Orange Tree Service, are the leading tree service provider in Port Orange and the nearby area. We are composed of a team of professional, licensed and insured arborists and we have been in service for several years. We take pride in always putting our clients’ needs and safety first.
