How to tell if your tree dying and/or dangerous:

Deep cavities at the base of the tee can be an indication that the tree has missing wood at the ground. Dead branches close to trunk of the tree is a sign that it is approaching death.

Why should I trim my trees?

Maintaining the tree's structure helps to mitigate the risk of broken limbs and falling branches. A properly pruned tree will not have compromising branch structures and improper wight distribution that could lead to disaster later on in the tree's life.
