Some gardeners prefer to get rid of old and dead trees quickly, but others just let them stay – mostly because it takes time and effort to get rid of them.
Meanwhile, some dry trees can be potentially dangerous, and it's especially true for families with kids.
Here are a few reasons why.
Fire Hazard
Dry trees are more likely to catch fire, especially during hot and dry weather.
If a fire starts, it can quickly spread to nearby areas, posing a risk to your property and those around.
Falling Branches
Dry trees are brittle and more prone to having branches break off.
These falling branches can cause damage to your home, cars, or even injure people who might be nearby.
Insect Infestation
Dry trees attract insects that can cause harm to the tree and spread to nearby plants.
Insects like beetles and termites may weaken the tree, making it more susceptible to falling.
Disease Spread
Dry trees are more vulnerable to diseases, and if not addressed, the disease can spread to other healthy plants in your garden.
This can lead to the loss of multiple plants.
Reduced Aesthetic Value
Dry trees can look unsightly and negatively impact the overall appearance of your garden.
This may affect your enjoyment of the outdoor space.
