Winter is the best time to trim and prune or remove your oak and elm trees. Even in the cold and snow of December, January and February, the Certified Arborists from Pioneer Tree Service are out trimming and removing trees around Milaca, Princeton, Foley, Zimmerman and St. Cloud and the surrounding areas.
Why Winter Tree Trimming?
Pruning a tree during the winter dormancy period is common practice. Benefits of winter tree trimming at home or office include:
- Reduce the risk of spreading some of the more common diseases affecting trees, such as oak wilt.
- Trees are dormant during the Minnesota winter. Because of this dormancy, “wounds” to the tree from trimming will only be exposed for a very short length of time – and in the spring, new growth begins sealing new wounds.
- The ground around your trees is frozen in the winter. Pruning can be done without compacting the soil around the tree’s roots. Any heavy equipment needed to access your trees will have less impact on the soil and landscaping around your yard’s trees.
- Pruning also improves the health of your trees by removing dead or dying branches that have previously been injured by disease, insects, mites, animals and storms.
