Dead or rotting trees?

Trish Jarvis from The Treeman Ltd

If you think you have a dead or dying tree near your house, don't wait to get it assessed. It may have been fine in the last few storms, but it will eventually fail as the structural integrity becomes compromised.

If you think you have a dead or dying tree near your house, don't wait to get it assessed. It may have been fine in the last few storms, but it will eventually fail as the structural integrity becomes compromised.
Things to watch out for are: limbs that no longer sprout new growth, deformed leaves, cracked bark, movement around the root zone with the lifting of soil, or tip dieback.
If you notice your tree is showing any of these indicators of a tree that may be in decline, get it professionally assessed.

As an Arborist I am often asked how and when to prune citrus trees in Auckland to protect them from borer.
Pruning should be done after the main fruiting period in late winter to early spring so the wounds can heal before the beetles fly.
Borer gets in through wounds when the adults lay their eggs during the flying season (around November to March) and the larvae do all the damage. They tunnel their way inside the branches towards the stem preventing sap from flowing.
If you find evidence of borer, remove the limb immediately, if possible right to the parent stem, treat the holes, and monitor the tree. A heavy infestation can kill the tree.

🍁❄️When deciduous trees are naked over winter, some spectacular bark is on display without the distraction of flowers and foliage.
Some of the trees to admire stunning bark include the twisting lines of mature Sweet Chestnut, the white peeling bark of the Betula papyrifera, and the smooth and peeling bark of the Watergum Tristaniopsis laurina.
Get amongst them at Cornwall Park, the Domain, Botanical Gardens, or even the Hamilton Gardens. They all provide you with fabulous opportunities to enjoy the bare trees and the awesomeness of their bark.

Please share this story with elderly family and friends to help them be aware and keep them safe. Help them to make a plan if it happens to them. 😞
On Queen's birthday, we received a call from a very distressed elderly client who had been approached by door knockers insisting on doing some tree work for her.
She knew it didn’t seem right so-called us to check. She was frightened as they didn’t seem to want to leave. 😡
Mike was in the area and went around immediately to make sure they left and check that she was ok.
No reputable company will ever knock on doors and insist on doing work that has not been requested. They did this because she was vulnerable and they took advantage of her.
If it was you and your mates going around with a trailer and a chainsaw intimidating people …shame, shame, shame, on you!!!

Patient Morepork

Trish Jarvis from The Treeman Ltd

🤨🥱When this 500 yr. old Puriri dropped a large limb on a house, the owner was lucky treasured items were not damaged.
While we cleaned up and removed the limb, a Morepork sat and watched us work. When we finished, she squeezed into a crack in the tree back to her nest and back to bed!

🌳👩‍🎓Cheeky possums were constant unwelcome visitors in our clients’ offices and boardroom, but the clients were keen to keep the tree the pests were using to access the roof.
We installed this tree guard, which is effectively a roadblock, preventing the possums from progressing up the tree, stopping them in their tracks.

The clear plastic possum guard is inconspicuous and hard-wearing. Unlike steel guards, these do not heat up in the sun -potentially damaging the trunk, and do not attach to the tree. They will also foil rats trying to climb up your tree trunk.

We can install these efficiently and cost-effectively. Learn more here www.thetreeman.co.nz...

The tree gets to live another day and the client and the tree is happy.....job done!
