Cleaning up your trees is important for maintaining their health and appearance. Here are some general tips for cleaning up your trees:
- Put mulch around the base: Applying mulch to the bases of your trees helps them to retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and reduce weed growth. Don’t pile mulch along the trunk though because it will cause it to rot.
- Clear out debris: Remove any fallen debris such as twigs and leaves around the base of the tree to prevent the build up of moisture and it helps to reduce the risk of mold or pests.
- Inspect trees: Regularly inspect your trees for signs of stress, disease, or damage. If you discover these issues, make sure they are solved as soon as possible for you and your tree’s health and safety.
