Now is the time, before the fall rains and wind set in, to survey the trees on your property. This is especially important here in Humboldt County, California where many homes have Redwoods over 150 feet tall on their lot.
Look at each tree carefully, use binoculars if necessary. Look at each tree from several different angles. Are there any broken branches, do any of the trees appear to be leaning heavily in one direction etc.?
If the tree is small and you have the experience to take care of the problem, take care of it now while the weather is good.
If the tree is larger, it is time to call in the professionals. This is the best time of the year to have tree climbers working in your back yard or to access the trees with an aerial lift.
Make sure all your trees are healthy going into the fall and you will not wake up to a big surprise after the first rain/wind storm.
