subject: Georgia Homebuyers Need A Professional Arborist [print this page] One of the first things that you should do when you buy a new home or property in a city like Atlanta is to have a professional arborist look at the trees. You should do this because like all other living things, trees need to be kept healthy.
There are a wide variety of pests and diseases that can quickly kill off your magnolias or oaks. Contrary to popular belief it is often impossible for a layperson to tell if there is something wrong with a poplar or evergreen.
In many cases a tree that is dying or dead can actually look healthy. An arborist can look at an elm and tell you what condition it is in. More importantly this professional can take action to save the beech before it is too late.
Protecting Your Investment
Actions the pro can take to protect Georgia peaches include spraying, pruning, trimming and the removal of dead or dying trees. In many cases, taking out one sick elm can save all of the greenery on a property.
Most property owners don't bother to have professionals look at their trees. This means that many of the birches and willows on your property could be sick or dying and you won't know it.
A person can try to protect their property by cutting down a sick elm themselves. Unfortunately simply taking out a dying oak may not protect your property. Many of the fungal diseases that attack oaks and elms can spread even after the sick tree has been sawed down.
A professional can remove the sick oak in such a way as to protect the rest of the property. Arborists can also take measures to save trees such as spraying.
There are also many bugs and diseases that attack foliage in Atlanta. The professionals will be familiar with them and know how to protect the property's beauty and value.
Atlanta
North Georgia is a very beautiful region and many people move here for the natural beauty. Property owners owe it to themselves to protect their investment and their home.
This means that every Atlanta homebuyer should make a call to a professional tree service when they move in. Such a call will protect their investment and preserve the natural beauty of their land.
