Marks Tree Service

When you're thinning out crowded branches, focus on removing crossing limbs first. They rub against each other during wind and create entry points for disease and pests that can weaken the whole tree. 🌳

Crossing or rubbing branches wear away bark where they touch, opening the door for disease and pests. Look for the branch collar (that slight ridge where the branch connects to the trunk) and make your cut just beyond it for the cleanest wound closure.

This keeps trees healthier and helps you avoid costly removals later.
