Mid-summer is when tree health issues that started in spring become plainly visible, and when preventive care makes the biggest difference for ornamental trees throughout West Michigan.
Deadwooding, the removal of dead, dying, and structurally compromised branches throughout the canopy, is one of the most direct plant health care services available. Dead wood in the upper canopy is a pathway for wood-boring insects and fungal disease, and branches that have already died create unnecessary weight and failure risk. Removing them cleanly and promptly protects the rest of the tree and the property below.
Eastern redbud, serviceberry, and ornamental crabapple, all common in Grand Rapids area landscapes, can develop specific fungal and bacterial issues that are worth monitoring mid-season. A plant health care evaluation from a certified arborist identifies any active concerns and outlines whether treatment, removal of affected material, or a multi-season management plan is the right approach.
Monster Tree Service of Grand Rapids provides plant health care and deadwooding throughout the Grand Rapids metro, including Comstock Park, Hudsonville, Jenison, Walker, and Wyoming. Free estimates are available for any tree health evaluation.

Authentic job photo preferred: a crew removing deadwood from an ornamental tree on a residential property, a close-up of disease symptoms being addressed, or a before/after of a cleaned-up ornamental tree. Real job photos are the most effective format for this type of content.
