Flying missles
Deadwood still attached to the tree can become a dangerous missile in strong winds. 🌪🌲
It is created by a natural process of deliberate branch shedding called abscission which can be due to a weak point or lack of vigor.
The deadwood is very brittle and can easily snap when limbs move in the wind.
Most of the debris on the road and driveways after a storm will be deadwood. Be proactive and go through your trees to remove deadwood before it's torn off and hits your car or house.
If you need help, as always, we are here for you.
