Summer 2016

Managing your trees and natural resources such as water, wildlife cover and tree/ plant species can be a daunting task to just about anyone.  Even some of my own projects get put on hold because work becomes a priority.  In many cases a professional can get our jobs done faster and better and is well worth the money, to have more free time to spend with the family and away from work.  Professionals also have a wealth of knowledge to make the right decisions that you are also not aware of.  As our weather patterns shift we have seen faster winds, sometimes more intense rain in shorter bursts and a cyclical rise in plant insects and diseases.  I will be taking a trip to Canada in the beginning of July to observe and better understand the widespread infestation of the Spruce Budworm.  There are things myself and my clients have been doing for years to prepare for the latest Spruce budworm infestation here in Maine.

Tree Pests (Spruce Budworm)

As cycles repeat themselves, landowners need to be prepared to maintain forest and tree health.  This is a long process and disaster strikes when you react after noticing a problem rather than before.  Work with a professional toprotect your trees from tree pests.  (Spruce Budworm, Emerald Ash Borer, Hemlock Looper are all great threats) to forest health.

Spring Tree Care and Projects are Arriving Fast!

Spring is arriving very quickly.  The buds on the trees are starting to swell.  Soon they will leaf out and it will be easy to see which limbs on your trees are dead.  Trees with dead or decaying wood attract insects and diseases and can be a hazard to your home and family.  They can also cause long term damage to other trees including some that may be favorites.  Care and maintenance are needed for healthy trees and forests.  Get a professional opinion if you are not sure of the extent of the issue or how to best fix the problem.

Properly Managed Forests Can Improve Wildlife Habitat!

    A properly managed woodlot has many beneficial impacts besides generating revenue.  A woodlot that is managed by a Professional Forester can create and increase the quality of wildlife habitat.  This can help rejuvenate endangered species or deer habitat while numbers are low.  All wildlife can benefit from management if done correctly.  For humans and wildlife to co-exist woodlots and forests of any size can contribute through sustainable forestry and wildlife management.
