Conservation

Good arboricultural practice should equal good nature conservation practice.

We at Wexford Tree Services are dedicated to conservation wherever possible. One method commonly employed that is of great benefit to the tree is ivy removal. This practice helps to preserve a trees health and is beneficial to the client in several ways:

• Improve the trees health
• Improved structural safety (due to removal of excess weight)
• Allows more light through to the clients property
• Allows the tree to grow again.

Assessment of a trees general health is an important part of our job. We can test the structural soundness of your tree using a variety of methods. This helps to ensure that healthy trees are not unnecessarily removed. Trees need to be protected and saved where possible, whilst ensuring safety.

It is important that tree infections are identified and dealt with where possible. One example of such infections Phytophthora presents a major threat to various species throughout europe in the arboricultural/horticultural field. At present there is no control for this deadly virus.
