As hurricane season approaches in Daytona Beach, Flagler County, and surrounding areas, homeowners need to start thinking about the safety of their trees and property. It’s essential to prepare trees for hurricane season to not only ensure their survival but also safeguard your property from potential damage.

The steps include:

1. Regular Pruning and Trimming: Regular pruning helps remove weak branches that can easily break off during storms. It also allows the wind to flow more easily through the tree, reducing the risk of it being uprooted.

2. Arborist Consultations: Professional arborists, like our ISA Certified Master Arborist at Action Tree Care, can conduct thorough assessments of your trees. They can identify potential risks and recommend effective preventative measures.

3. Proper Mulching and Watering: A well-nourished tree is more likely to withstand the hurricane season. Ensure your trees are properly watered and mulched to encourage deep root growth, which strengthens the tree’s stability.

4. Proactive Tree Removal: For dead or significantly weakened trees, removal may be the safest option to prevent severe damage to your property during a storm.

5. Installation of Support Systems: For certain trees, installing support systems like braces and cables can provide additional support, enhancing their ability to withstand strong winds.
