#1
Maintain a very good upkeep on your trees throughout the entire year instead of only focusing on certain seasons. Well maintained, strong, healthy trees always do better than the weak, damaged and un-managed trees.
#2
Focus on simply removing dead, diseased or damaged branches. In the summer months fresh cuts attract all sorts of insects that carry fungus and disease, these can be detrimental to your trees.
#3
Build a relationship with a tree care professional and become established as a regular customer. A regular customer's needs will be addressed following a storm before the needs of new clients.
#4
Don't stop watering. This is very important. During these dry summer months you will need to keep a close eye on your trees, especially in times of drought. Keep an eye out for wilting and speak with a professional about setting up a water plan to ensure your trees are getting the proper amount!
