Fall Season Tree Maintenance

Fall Season Tree Maintenance

Here are a few suggestions to keep in mind for the fall season tree maintenance in your yard and lawn.

You Could Get rid of trees That Make it Hard to Maintain Your Lawn – Fall Season Tree Maintenance

Surely, trees can be a beautiful sight during the spring and summer but comes autumn and it is time to clean up your yard for the winter by removing tons of leaves, pine cones, sweet gum balls, magnolia cones and more. Some of the messiest trees to work around are Oak, Sweet Gum, Pecan and Southern Magnolia.

In the case of Oak and Pecan trees it is difficult to rake all the acorns that might sprout the following spring. In addition, they shed branches of varying sizes that can fall on your vehicle or home. Sweet Gum trees will not only shed leaves, but a made-in-hell acorn covered in spikes that you will not want to experience while barefoot. They could also sprain your ankle if you step on it. Southern Magnolia trees will drop cones that are very hard; so, forget about mowing them like pine cones; your mower will not be able to break them down and can be as hazardous as the Sweet Gum balls for the ankles.

And there’s the tree sap…

Tree sap will do extensive damage to the paint of your house and car, stain outdoor surfaces and furniture, not to mention making the bottom of your shoes sticky so you can carry all that dirt inside your house.

If you really love having any these beautiful trees in your property try to plant them at a safe distance from your house, where they won’t make it too hard for your lawn cleaning and by to doing a fall season tree maintenance.
