There’s so much at risk of having a decaying or an almost-breaking tree on your property. In worst-case scenarios, the failing tree may fall on someone injuring them badly, or it can fall on your property or your neighbors’, costing you lots of money.
In other instances, the failing tree can fall on a power line and interrupt the whole community or even cause a wildfire.
It’s thus essential to recognize when your tree is failing and take necessary action to prevent any problems.
Here are the warning signs you should be looking out for in a failing tree:
When mushrooms and fungus begin to grow on your tree or its surrounding, this is a sign that your tree may be infected or is decaying from within. Even if not all mushrooms are dangerous, many of them are harmful to trees.
When the tree roots or the surrounding soils are lifting, this may signify that your tree is not properly anchored to the ground or the tree’s crown is rotting. This means the tree needs to be treated, and if that doesn’t work, be removed even if it’s not leaning yet.
One easy recipe for a decaying tree is the presence of a cavity. For just any homeowner, it may be difficult to spot a cavity problem. However, if you notice birds or other animals nesting in your tree, it may indicate that there’s a small cavity in your tree.
A cavity can also be caused by a previous wound to the tree caused by a bad pruning job.
If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to call the professionals as soon as possible to prevent a disaster from striking.
