Pruning trees? Avoid shortcuts, experts advise
Dealing with trees in the fall means more than simply raking.
When its limbs and canopy are bereft of leaves, it can be a good time to judge a tree for pruning.
But many tree experts say clients or would-be customers often look at trimming as nothing more than a way to make fall leaf cleanup easier. Proper tree care is more than a simple shortcut, they say.
“It is not a question of when, but how,” said Mike Seefeld, owner of Mike’s Tree Service in New Kensington, about 15 miles northeast of downtown Pittsburgh.
“Most times, it is best to wait until the leaves are all on or all off,” said Philip Snow from Best 4 Less Tree Service in Pittsburgh. “The transitional time is when the trees are the most vulnerable.”
That means doing the raking first and then taking care of the tree.
Snow and others say waiting until the leaves are gone provides a good way of seeing the skeleton of a tree and determining good branches versus bad.
