1. Tips to Help You Initiate
Preventative Tree
Maintenance

2. The trees are one of the most
important resources in our fight
against climate change.

3. However, trees require
preventative maintenance from
time to time for their proper
growth.

4. Here are some tips to help you initiate preventative
maintenance of the trees on your property.

5. Watering As Required

6. The watering of the plants is
very necessary for their proper
growth and without it, trees will
wither away and die.

7. However, too much water can also
affect the trees in the same way as
too little water affects them.

8. You need to water your trees frequently based on
their requirement and the demands of the
prevailing weather.

9. Pruning is Essential

10. Pruning helps in the proper growth
of the trees as it helps in getting rid
of the unwanted branches of your
trees.

11. Besides that, pruning is also very
necessary for trees because of the
lack of adequate space for trees to
grow freely in urban spaces.

12. If pruning of the trees is not carried out
regularly, then their branches are
ultimately going to affect the nearby
houses & buildings.

13. Tree Assessment

14. Like humans trees also get affected
by insects, pests, and diseases that
not only affect their growth but also
lead to their ultimate death.

15. Carrying out regular tree
assessments will help you in
identifying any diseases that might
be affecting the growth of your trees.

16. Furthermore, you also need to carry out
an assessment of your trees before any
storm hits so that loose & damaged
branches can be pruned.

17. Mulching & Weeds Removal

18. Mulching is a crucial preventative
maintenance step that helps in the
growth of the trees & protects the trees
from evaporation.

19. Mulching also plays a leading role in
protecting the trees from getting
damaged inadvertently when you are
using a lawn mower.

20. Removing weeds around your trees is
also very important because they suck
away essential nutrients from the soil
affecting the growth of trees.

preventative maintenance steps

your trees.
