Announcer open:

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

Larry:

TOPPING A TREE… THAT’S AN OLD THING THEY DID IN THE PAST. ALL YOUR I.S.A. CERTIFIED ARBORISTS, WE DON’T TOP TREES. WE DON’T EVEN RECOMMEND IT. TOPPING BASICALLY IS SEVERELY CUTTING OF THE TREE BRANCHES WHERE YOU CUT THE STUBS OR LATORAL BRANCHES THAT ARE NOT LARGE ENOUGH TO ASSUME TERMINAL ROLES. TOPPING ACTUALLY STRESSES OUT TREES BECAUSE TOPPING REMOVES FIFTY TO ONE-HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE LEAF BEARING CROWN OF THE TREE WHICH IS NOT HEALTHY FOR THE TREE. A STRESSED TREE IS MORE VULNERABLE TO INSECTS AND DISEASE INFESTATION. TOPPING ALSO CAUSES DECAY. IT ALSO LEADS TO SUNBURNING AND DRYING OUT OF THE LIMBS BECAUSE THEREY’S NO FOLIAGE TO SHADE THE REST OF THE TREE. TOPPING IS ACTUALLY EXPENSIVE BECAUSE YOU NEED TO TRIM THE TREE MORE FREQUENTGLY. A WELL MAINTAINED TREE THAT’S NOT TOPPED ACTUALLY ADDS TEN TO TWENTY PERCENT MORE VALUE TO YOUR PROPERTY PLUS THE LONGEVITY OF THE TREE LIVING LONGER. I WOULD JUST RECOMMEND HAVING AN I.S.A. CERTIFIED ARBORIST COME OUT AND ASSESS YOUR TREES BEFORE YOU HAVE SOMEBODY ELSE JUST START BUTCHERING AWAY ON THEM.
