Winter\nTree Threats<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

There\nare various factors that can influence the health and condition of a tree,\nyear-round. Not only can harsh winter weather impact a tree\u2019s ability to thrive,\nother natural occurrences can weaken or damage a tree overtime, such as pest\ninfestation, wildlife tampering, poor soil compaction or pH levels, lawn\ndrainage, landscaping, construction, and much more. As for the winter, the most\ndamaging elements that trees can suffer from include heavy snow, hail, ice,\nwindstorms, and heavy rain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So,\nwill this recent snowfall cause your trees to die? Probably not, but the\npossibility is there if your trees have existing health problems, such as disease\nor malnutrition. Furthermore, newly planted and young trees are more vulnerable\nto elemental damages, making it important to protect them during times of heavy\nsnowfall and below-freezing temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beware\nof Winter Burn<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Also\nknown as desiccation<\/em>, winter burn is a potentially-fatal seasonal\nproblem among evergreen trees. The most common causes for winter burn are\ninsufficient levels of moisture in soil, freezing temperatures, and inclement\nwinds. These factors cause trees to lose moisture faster than they can replace\nit, as a result of the frozen ground and soil conditions. Because of these\nconditions, trees suffering from winter burn often die before spring arrives<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How\nto Protect Trees in Snowy Weather<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Diseased,\ndecaying, or dead trees can easily be knocked down in a large snowstorm. It is wise\nto remove a tree in this condition before it becomes a threat to the people and\nsurroundings in your neighborhood. This is one reason why routine tree care and\nmaintenance is so important. Regular, year-round tree care is highly effective,\nand can help thrive through winter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
