Moisture and heat conditions determine the survivability timetable for uprooted trees.

There have been many issues causing residents and businesses owners, of Uptown Dallas, East Dallas, Central Dallas and North Dallas communities, including Highland Park, University Park, Lakewood, Lake Highlands and Preston Hollow to engage the services of a Dallas Emergency Tree Service, like White Rock Tree Removal Service. From the unprecedented lack of moisture, to sudden wind damage and opportunistic infestations, emergency tree removal is happening all over Dallas. After an emergency tree removal, there is often the question of how to replace the removed tree. 

A professional Dallas emergency tree service can advise you about the challenges of planting in an urban area. An urban environment is harsher than a rural one for local trees. Proper planning when planting is a great place to start. White Rock Tree Removal Service recommends a 2 to1 rule when planning to plant a new tree. Plan for the long-term health of your newly planted trees by allowing 2 cubic feet of usable soil for every planned 1 square foot of mature canopy, allowing adequate space for successful maturation. Appropriate tree species, to the Dallas area, should be chosen and proper planting techniques should be utilized. Planting Texas Buckeye is recommended for smaller areas. For larger areas, Live Oak and Cedar Elm stand up well to Dallas's unique conditions, as long as they have the appropriate space and care to thrive. 

Help maintaining the health and integrity of mature urban trees is another driving factor causing calls for Dallas emergency tree service. Dallas has experienced extraordinary hot and dry conditions this year and mature Dallas trees are ready to feed. Dallas trees are depleted of nutrients after fighting to survive local conditions and need replenishment to prepare for the potentially extreme conditions headed for Dallas this winter. Temperatures are becoming favorable for deep root fertilization to strengthen root systems, which generally extend beyond a tree's canopy. This treatment causes thousands of tiny new fibrous roots to develop, to absorb the flood of nutrients now available to the tree. Root systems reinforced, in this way, provide a strong anchor for Dallas trees to combat the increasingly extreme weather events becoming common to our area. 

Ultimately, mature Dallas trees reduce structural energy use / cost and greatly decrease asphalt surface area and automobile cabin temperatures, thus reducing fuel use and improving air quality in urban areas. The sale prices of homes with mature trees are generally 3.5% - 4.5% higher than homes without mature trees. Consumer ratings of retail districts with mature trees are quantifiably higher, (up to 60% in some areas), than retail districts that are short on trees. There is even a statistical correlation between mature trees on public housing property and lower violent crime rates than similar public housing with no tree cover.

After the recent, once in a thousand year, storm, homeowners and business owners in the Highland Park, University Park, East Dallas and North Dallas communities are calling White Rock Tree Removal Service for Dallas Emergency Tree Service Inspections, with concerns over the consequences of flooding for their trees. 

 There is legitimate reason to be concerned over the short and long term affects of such an unprecedented volume of rainfall. Flooding results in poor aeration, quickly hindering oxygen respiration from the atmosphere to the surface of the tree. Flood water invades macro-pores that are meant to hold gas. This can damage root systems, as the diffusion rate of oxygen across a water, as opposed to a gas, interface is 7000 times slower. This slow oxygen diffusion can lead to the need for Dallas Emergency Tree Removal, due to a build up of methane, hydrogen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen gas. This toxin buildup causes root system death and failed trees. 

 In flood waters, metallic and organic coatings in the soil dissolve, causing loss of cohesion of soil aggregates and clay particle dispersion. It's also probable that the anaerobic ecology of the soil has been affected causing loss of nitrogen, magnesium sulfur and iron. All of this leads to inefficient decomposition of matter deposited by flood waters, further hindering the nutrient processes. This deficit ensures a buildup of deadly toxins in your Dallas trees. 

 Tree toppling is a major concern after flash flood conditions. This can cause the need for Dallas Emergency Tree Service a few hours to a few weeks after the storm. New soil conditions cause the need for Dallas trees to generate new root systems. Due to flood effects to the soil, and increased pest activity in response to a higher volume of decomposing material, trees may lack effectiveness in this process and decline rapidly and die. Toppling of trees in these conditions is likely to cause the need for Dallas Emergency Tree Service with the next wind storm, which is a common occurrence this time of year.  

 If you're concerned, you should reach out to a Dallas Emergency Tree Service, like White Rock Tree Removal Service to assess the survivability of your trees. Trees should be inspected for conditions that are structurally hazardous and there's an expection for many trees to decline and die suddenly this year. Phosphorus, dolomitic limestone and potassium fertilization can help strengthen your Dallas trees while replenishing magnesium and calcium. Once a year, for three years, is ideal to fortify your trees after flood damage. 

 Dallas Tree Flood Damage Assessments should also include inspections for increased fungal and insect activity. One tree showing symptoms often indicates a problem in the surrounding trees, as well. Hold off on green wood pruning, and only prune for safety to protect the supply of food to Dallas trees. Diluted but toxic biohazards also wash downstream in urban floodwaters, further degrading the strength of roots and may results in trees beginning to lean. Leaning trees cause hazardous conditions to utilities and structures, as the process of tree toppling may be gradual, taking weeks after the original assault, for a tree to, ultimately, fail. 

 Call a local Dallas Tree Service that specializes in Dallas Emergency Tree Service like White Rock Tree Removal Service for an informed assessment of the condition of your Dallas trees to ensure the safety of your property and loved ones. A cost free inspection from the ground is standard in the industry but ensure you are talking to a professional who is qualified and experienced in assessing flood damage. Though White Rock Tree Removal Service has a policy of attempting to keep initial inspection costs at $0, more extensive inspections may cost $100 to $500 but are necessary in many cases of suspected flood damage. It's a classic case of an ounce of prevention being worth a pound of cure. Keep in mind, emergency tree service response to failed, century old, trees in the Highland Park, University Park, East Dallas and North Dallas communities incur costs of thousands of dollars to tens of thousands, when factoring property and utility damage.

Residents and business owners of the East Dallas, North Dallas, University Park, Highland Park, Uptown Dallas and Preston Hollow communities  have been reaching out to request Dallas Emergency Tree Service from White Rock Tree Removal Service, in response to dead or dying trees causing hazardous conditions on their properties. Obviously, drought is a major contributing factor to tree death in the Dallas area.

Lack of available moisture may not be the ultimate cause of Dallas tree death. Drought conditions may weaken your tree's defenses to the point that normally weak pathogens, like hypoxylon fungus are allowed to take hold. In such cases, it will become  eminently necessary to engage a Dallas Emergency Tree Service, like White Rock Tree Removal Service, as once fungus infection is obvious, the tree is already dead. Heat stress sets the appropriate conditions for tree deaths from macro fungi like hypoxylon canker. Hypoxylon, usually considered a weak pathogen, is a white rot fungus, whose first obvious sign of tree infection is the thinning or dying back of the crown of your Dallas tree. Infection next causes exposed areas of gray, reddish brown, green or tan spores in spots where infection caused tree bark to loosen and slough off. Visibility of spores is a sure sign of tree death.

Any Dallas Emergency Tree Service will tell you that proper care of your Dallas trees, in drought conditions, is the best way to prevent conditions that lead to opportunistic pathogens like hypoxylon canker and insects like bark engraver beetles. The latter of which, burrow completely through your trees causing spontaneous limb drop and buckled trunks in trees that may have no other signs of distress, besides obvious dehydration. 

Though water, soil moisture in particular, is paramount to long term tree health, dehydration is not the only problem. Transpiration is limited by low moisture levels in soil and lack of humidity, causing the cells in leaves to literally cook to death. Trees dissipate heat through transpiration, which is water evaporation from tree leaves. This cell cooking releases toxins, which build up to cause lesions that eventually kill  Dallas trees. The effects can be hard to identify and cause unseen / unknown hazardous conditions. The devastating results of these hazardous conditions are what is driving the high volume of calls for emergency tree service, from residents of the East Dallas, North Dallas, University Park, Highland Park, Uptown Dallas and Preston Hollow communities to White Rock Tree Removal Service.

You can reduce stress to your trees, as drought conditions continue, by protecting root systems from damage through proper watering, minimizing over crowding, and proper pruning. Supplemental watering is necessary in cases of 7 straight days of drought conditions or significantly higher temperatures than are the norm, for the particular time of year. Flooding the roots close tho the trunk can cause various diseases. Water your trees outside the drip line, (the area on the ground directly under the farthest-reaching branches,) of the crown. Water once a week with a soaker hose, a half or quarter of the root system at a time, soaking the soil to a depth of 8 to 10 inches. Of course, water in the evening and be sure to follow local rules for water conservation. 

 Unfortunately, all the prevention in the world can't guarantee a good outcome 100% of the time. Be sure to protect yourself and your property. If you have any questions or concerns about the health or condition of your Dallas trees, call a local Dallas tree service like White Rock Tree Removal Service for a free onsite tree inspection.
