What Makes a Tree Special?

Trees are living organisms that require both attention and care, just like any other living thing in your home or on your property.

Trees are integral to our ecosystem, providing us with clean air, shade, and even food. They also serve as natural barriers against soil erosion, storm damage, flooding, and other natural disasters. Trees also offer aesthetic value by adding beauty to your property.

Trees have some real and tangible economic benefits too! According to Trees Are Good, an organization that provides the public with free educational information about trees, properties that include landscaping are valued at around 5-20% more than comparable non-landscaped ones (Trees Are Good. Tree Values. International Society of Arboriculture., 2021).

Recognizing Tree Risk Before It's Too Late

Trees serve many purposes and add significantly to our quality of life. Trees, however, are not without risks; they can also become hazards when they fall on property, like a car or a portion of your house.

Homeowners should be conscientious of the safety concerns that arise from growing trees on their property.

Trees can pose a hazard in several ways. They can fall over, causing damage to anything below them, or they can lean toward buildings and homes. Wind or ice storms can also cause trees to fall.

To prevent injuries and property damage, it is crucial to recognize tree risk before it's too late. A professional arborist can identify tree risks and make recommendations for safety. The following are some of the things to look out for when evaluating tree risk:

Insect Infestations

Insects that burrow in the wood of trees can weaken them, making them more susceptible to breaking apart in high winds or falling over due to their weight.

Diseases

Tree diseases such as oak wilt or ash dieback can cause significant damage to trees, which puts them at risk of falling during storms.

Old Age

If a tree is very old, it may be too weak to withstand the strong winds and heavy rains that accompany storms.

Poor upkeep

Watering, fertilizing, tree trimming, and pruning on a regular basis can help them live longer and stay healthy enough to withstand storms without toppling. But, with poor upkeep, trees are more likely to succumb to diseases and storm damage.

Species and Climate

Certain trees are more vulnerable to storms than others, so it is important to know which ones are most likely to break apart or fall over in high winds. Examples of trees that are not well adapted to the climate in Waco, TX and are more likely to fail due to strong winds are Arizona Ash and Chinese Tallow trees.

Location

Trees growing near power lines are more likely to be struck by lightning during a storm, which can result in fires or even electrocution if the wires come into contact with live currents.

Size

The larger a tree gets, the more weight it has to support, and the easier it is for strong winds to knock it over. The roots are also a major factor, as they are responsible for anchoring the tree and holding it upright. If the roots are damaged or diseased, they may not be able to support the tree well enough to prevent it from being blown over by strong winds.

Branches

The more branches a tree has, the greater its surface area and the more easily it can be blown over by strong winds. Even trees with well-penetrated roots can easily be blown over if they have a large surface area relative to the amount of soil holding them down.

Growing Conditions

Trees that grow in moist soil are less likely to break apart than those growing on dry ground. The same is true for trees that grow in soil with high clay content.

How Can An Arborist Help You?

Trees are long-term investments that must be cared for properly.

A certified arborist has extensive training in tree care. They can help you decide if your trees need to be pruned or removed and recommend methods for keeping them healthy.

Arborists are trained to identify tree diseases and pests, as well as the most effective treatment options for each case. They can also advise you on what trees best suit your yard's climate and soil conditions.

Our Tree Care Services in Waco, Texas

We believe that the best tree care comes from an approach that is tailored to our customer’s tree care needs. At 3rd Day Tree Service, we offer a full range of residential and commercial services to keep trees healthy, lush, and safe.

Tree Pruning

As trees grow older and larger, they can become unbalanced and unstable. This can put the tree's health at risk and make it more likely to break or fall over in high winds or bad weather conditions.

To avoid this situation from happening, we recommend regular tree trimming and pruning sessions for all of our customers. We use a variety of tools to safely trim the branches and limbs of your trees, ensuring that they are balanced and healthy.

We can also perform crown thinning if necessary—this is a process that removes excess branches from the upper portions of the tree, allowing more sunlight and wind to filter through the canopy to aid in growth and tree health.

When you have your trees maintained by the 3rd Day Tree Service, you can rest easy knowing that they are in good hands.

Tree Removal

If your tree has been damaged by disease or pests and is likely to fall, you may need a tree removal service, especially if the tree is close to power lines, homes, or other structures.

Invasive tree species are also often removed because they can crowd out other plants and make your yard unsafe for humans or animals.

Tree removal is a very dangerous job. It's crucial to hire a tree company that has the experience and expertise needed to do a fantastic job.

3rd Day Tree Service has the experience and expertise to remove your trees safely. We are a local tree care company that provides affordable and highest quality work in Waco, Texas. We have the proper equipment and tools to get the job done quickly and safely and industry-standard insurance coverage for your protection.

Stump Grinding

A fallen or cut-down tree leaves behind a stump that must be dealt with. Most people simply leave the stump in place and let nature take its course, but this can have serious consequences: rotting stumps can cause erosion and runoff issues in your yard and attract bugs and rodents.

3rd Day Tree Service can help you remove and grind those pesky bothersome stumps if you want to avoid these consequences. We use modern equipment to grind the stumps into small chips that can be used for mulch or compost.

Tree Growth Regulator (TGR)

Using tree growth regulators is a common practice among arborists, as it can be used to control the height and width of your trees.

TGRs are applied directly to the trunk of your tree and work by inhibiting the production of gibberellin, which is responsible for cell elongation. When gibberellin levels drop, the cells stop growing—which means they will not grow any taller or wider.

The tree, freed from the burden of trying to grow taller and wider, uses its energy instead on root hair production and foliage health.

TGRs also increase the tree's starch reserves, improving its natural ability to stave off diseases and pest infestations. TGRs are often used with other treatments, including fertilization and mulching. This is because they work best when the tree is already healthy and strong.
