In fact, many homeowners have asked about wind tree damage, and what they can do to prevent it from happening to their own landscaping trees. One such consequence of heavy winds is falling or toppling trees, an occurrence known as windthrow<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tree Windthrow<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Also known as blowdown<\/em>,\ntree windthrow is a term used in the forestry industry to describe trees that\nfall over or uproot as a result of heavy winds and storms. Tree species that\ntend to be more susceptible to windthrow are willow white spruce, cedar, and\nwhite pine. However, all trees can fall over in inclement weather conditions,\nespecially if they are malnourished, dying, or dead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common Signs of a Dead or Dying Tree<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The most vulnerable trees to blowdown are sick, dying, and\ndead trees. These trees lack the stability and strength needed to withstand\ninclement weather such as heavy wind storms. You will know if your trees are\ndying or already dead by looking for some common signs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dead Trees<\/strong> \u2013 Gray inner flesh of twigs and bark, pest infestations, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dying Trees<\/strong> \u2013 Pest infestations, bark damage, fungal growth, leaf discoloration or loss, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uprooted Trees<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

When winds and storms are strong enough, or if a tree is large enough, it can come out of the ground completely. This is known as tree uprooting. When the root ball and connecting roots are exposed after a tree falls down, the tree is described as being uprooted<\/em>. See our blog, \u201cIs it Possible to Replant Uprooted Trees?<\/a>\u201d to learn your options for uprooted trees. If your tree cannot be transplanted, it will likely need to be removed. Contact a licensed Noblesville tree service company to have it removed, safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
