IT’S TIME FOR TREE TALK… YOUR WEEKLY NINETY SECONDS OF TOTALLY TREES RADIO PRESENTED BY BRUMBAUGH TREE SERVICE LLC.

Larry:

HI I’M LARRY BRUMBAUGH. WELCOME TO TREE TALK. JUST SOME OF THE STATISTICS ON YOU KNOW HOMEOWNER TREE CARE, JUST IN 2013 ARE THE ONES THAT ARE REPORTED BY NEWS MEDIA, A LOT OF THEM DON’T GET REPORTED BECA– USE PEOPLE GO TO THE HOSPITAL AND THE ER YOU KNOW BY AMBULANCE AND IT DOESN’T REALLY GET REPORTED THAT IT WAS A HOMEOWNER TREE TRIMMING PROJECT. BUT JUST OUT OF THE ONES THAT THE MEDIA KNEW ABOUT, THERE WERE TWENTY-EIGHT FATALITIES JUST LAST YEAR. YOU KNOW PEOPLE TRYING TO TRIM THEIR OWN TREES. I MEAN PEOPLE NEED TO, HOMEOWNERS NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN YOU’RE GETTING INTO SOME OF THESE TREE TRIMMING PROCEDURES YOU KNOW YOU HAVE BIGGER LIMBS, YOU HAVE BIGGER TREES. YOU NEED THE PROPER TRAINING. YOU NEED THE PROPER EQUIPMENT. IT MIGHT LOOK SIMPLE. YOU’RE GOING TO CUT A FOUR INCH LIMB OFF OVER YOUR HEAD BUT IF YOU CUT THAT AND IT COMES BACK AND HITS YOU, YOU’RE GOING TO GET INJURED. IF IT’S SOMETHING YOU CAN DO FROM THE GROUND, AND IT’S ONLY A COUPLE INCHES, MAYBE YOU CAN HANDLE THAT. BUT WHEN IT STARTS GETTING INTO THE YOU KNOW TREE CARE, YOU KNOW OVERHEAD LIMBS, DROPPING A TREE. YOU KNOW AS PROFESSIONALS AND CERTIFIED ARBORISTS, WE — USE ROPES; WE — USE WEDGES; WE CUT THE RIGHT NOTCH IN THE TREE. WE KNOW HOW TO MAKE THE RIGHT BACK CUT. HOMEOWNERS DON’T REALLY KNOW THIS KIND OF INFORMATION. THAT’S IT FOR THIS WEEKS EDITION OF TREE TALK. UNTIL NEXT TIME, I’M LARRY BRUMBAUGH. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING
