Severe storms and other disasters can sometimes rip a tree out of the ground or knock it down. When you have a fallen tree in your yard, it’s important to make sure you address it properly to avoid any further damages or issues for your property.
Fallen tree removal is just as necessary as removing a tree that is still upright but is posing a safety risk. However, not every homeowner understands this importance. Just because a tree has already fallen doesn’t make it less of a hazard, even if it didn’t fall on any structures and cause any visible damages to your home, fence, or other outdoor features. Curious pets and children can get seriously hurt playing or exploring a fallen tree. When the weather warms up, a fallen tree will quickly become the perfect nesting ground for many different types of pests, including both insects and rodents. To avoid these problems, it’s best to prioritize fallen tree removal as soon as the tree falls.
Some homeowners believe that they can handle a fallen tree in the yard on their own. We strongly discourage DIY fallen tree removal. While removing a fallen tree may seem significantly easier than removing an upright one, there are still dangers and concerns present that make this job best suited for professional services. Operating the equipment necessary to remove a fallen tree is dangerous, even for smaller trees that have fallen. Plus, you don’t want to accidentally cause any damages to your property trying to remove the tree by yourself.
