Storm Damage Alert...Shake Snow Off Trees!

Protect your small trees and shrubs from storm damage. Another major storm is striking our region. The combination of heavy, dense snow and high winds can break or split trees and shrubs. You can minimize damage to your highly valued small trees and shrubs by periodically removing snow from the branches. Use a long pole or rake to gently lift branches and shake to dislodge snow or ice.

Blizzard Leaves Trees with Hidden Hazards

Please have your trees checked for safety! Giroud Arborists have found serious damage on thousands of trees since the recent storms.The problem is what you can't see. The heavy, wet snow put more weight on trees than they are used to handling. While many trees and limbs have already fallen; there are still many more with cracks or splits that have a high potential for failure. Beyond these hazards, the heavy snow load may also have compromised tree strength and stability. Finally, smaller ornamentals that are highly valued in your landscape may not pose a safety threat but could be lost if action isn't taken to correct the damage. Have your trees checked for hidden hazards. Schedule a free inspection with your Giroud Arborist today at: 215-682-7704 or customerservice@giroudtree.com
