When is the Best Time for Tree Trimming in Fairfax VA?
When dealing with Oak trees and especially those suffering from Oak Wilt, another good time would be the summer months since the organisms that cause this problem are dormant in the summer months. While what we discussed are the best time of year to do any trimming, it is possible to do necessary trimming at any time of the year.

So the next question we need to address is what is the best way to trim your trees. Well we'll start of by addressing one of the most controversial issues when it comes to trimming a tree and that is how much to thin the tree. While it used to be recommended to thin up to one-third of the tree, most trees have ended up having too much healthy green tissue from it and any one time. This can cause problems with the health of the tree and overall growth.

A much more conservative ten - fifteen percent is now what is commonly recommended because you want to leave some good healthy greenery in the tree. Most trees need to be addressed on an individual basis because there is a lot to take into account when tree trimming in Fairfax, Virginia.

The species of the tree combined with the overall health can have a lot to do with how much trimming the tree can handle. Quite a few trees in the Fairfax area may only need occasional dead wood and low lying limb removal. You can begin to see why hiring a tree trimming service is really the best bet to making sure your trees are cared for properly.
