Calling a tree service for a spring check-up is great way to make sure your yard is healthy and thriving. What will a professional company who specializes in tree work do for you?
Inspect your trees
If branches are dying, they usually die from the crown (top) down. If your trees have sparse areas, they may have a disease, or an insect infestation. They also could be stressed from drought or from compacted soil. Pruning these trees – stripping away dead branches to let the living thrive – could help, but they may need to take more serious measures. There are ways to salvage and heal dying trees, which vary depending on the species and the circumstances.
Mulch
Putting a few inches of mulch around the base of your trees will help them transition smoothly. It raises the soil temperature, and also reduces the weeds around the base. As far as your plants go, a thin layer of mulch on the garden’s surface will fight these weeds too, and give the whole area a brighter, fresher look.
Rake it up
Whether or not you stayed on top of your raking through the fall and winter, it’s time for a thorough raking. Get a comb in it! Getting any debris out of the yard will help your grass breathe and prepare for the warmer weather. You want to see that your yard is dry enough to rake, though – you wouldn’t want to start raking and then realize that you are pulling up chunks of the lawn in your rake.
