Old Monroe Trees Carry Hidden Risk
Monroe properties often run one to two acres of mixed woods. Big oaks stand along stone walls that mark old farm lines. Many have dead tops you cannot see from the ground. A tree service inspection in Monroe spots that dead wood early.
Oaks in Monroe took a hard hit from spongy moth years back. Some never fully recovered and still lose limbs each season. Ash trees have died from emerald ash borer. Monroe tree care now means sorting healthy trees from ones in decline.
Pines and hemlocks crowd close to Monroe homes too. Their limbs rub roofs and fill gutters with needles. In winter, ice bends them toward the house. Homeowners near Wolfe Park often ask for tree services once a branch scrapes the siding.
