Winter Tree Care: Protect Your Stillwater Home from Spring Storms

The Oklahoma landscape is breathtaking, but it also presents unique challenges for homeowners. Severe weather, including the potential for tornadoes, is a significant concern. Protecting your property starts with proactive tree care, and winter is the ideal time to address crucial maintenance needs. At Kal's Lawn Care & Services, we're experienced and skilled professionals in tree care, providing Stillwater homeowners with safe and effective solutions to safeguard their investments.

Why Winter is the Best Time for Pruning and Trimming:

While spring might seem like the obvious time to prune, winter pruning offers several significant advantages for the health and safety of your trees:

Reduced Disease Risk: Dormant trees are less susceptible to diseases during winter pruning. The reduced sap flow minimizes the entry points for pathogens. Fresh cuts have less opportunity to be infected.

Enhanced Tree Health: Proper pruning encourages healthier growth by removing dead, diseased, or damaged limbs. This redirects the tree's energy to its healthier portions. Winter pruning allows the tree to heal efficiently before the demands of spring growth begin.

Improved Structure: Pruning in winter helps maintain the tree's natural form, removing potentially hazardous branches before they become larger and heavier. This preventative measure protects your home and family from damage during spring storms.

Easier Access and Visibility: Winter's bare branches offer clearer visibility and easier access for accurate pruning. It also makes removing dead or hazardous branches much safer for both the trees and our crew.

Minimized Pest and Insect Activity: The significantly reduced sap flow during winter makes trees less attractive to pests and insects. This limits the spread of infestations and reduces the risk of disease transfer during the pruning process. Newly pruned areas are far less vulnerable to insect invasion when performed during the dormancy period.

Hazard Removal Before Tornado Season:

Oklahoma's tornado season looms large, making preemptive tree maintenance crucial. Weak or damaged trees pose significant risks. Dead limbs can break off easily, becoming dangerous projectiles in high winds. If your trees present hazards such as dead or hanging limbs, contact us for prompt removal. Our trained and experienced crew prioritizes safe and complete removal. We use advanced techniques to minimize disruption and potential property damage while maintaining the health and integrity of your remaining trees.
