June 1st marks the beginning of hurricane season! Hurricane season will last until November 30.
Florida is subject to hurricanes throughout the hurricane season and these massive storms cause a lot of tree damage event on areas that are not directly hit by the storm.
You can make the trees in your landscape more hurricane-resis
Correct tree pruning will help trees grow stronger and survive hurricanes. Prune them so they develop a sturdy framework of healthy branches around a central leader. The canopy edge can be thinned which will allow air to pass through freely.
Of course, the best way to protect your landscape and home from hurricane damage is to select trees carefully in the first place. Use a professional tree service to design the landscape and plant the trees appropriately.
We recommend choosing trees with strong root systems, trunks, and branches, and select species that are more wind-resistant. Plant the trees away from structures, power lines and utilities.
If you think ahead and prepare, your trees and property are more likely to survive the hurricane season in Florida. Call us for your FREE Quote on preparing your tress for the upcoming storm season.
