My life as an Arborist

>> Monday, June 6, 2011

Thanks to Jonathon Woods



Most people don't know what an arborist is, but basically, my job is to maintain the health and pleasing aesthetic appearance of all of the trees in our local area. It's a harder task than you would imagine, since when one tree gets a disease, much like in humans, they spread it to other trees as well. This is how an entire row of elm trees is able to be knocked out in one fell swoop. I have to stay on top of the diseases that are currently going around as well as infestations that may also affect my trees. I found some goo Miami Clearinternet deals so I'm able to use my laptop to look up symptoms while I'm out on a job site, which helps me administer prompt and effective treatment. I get so much joy out of being able to save a sick tree and nothing breaks my heart more than not being able to save a dying one. The greatest part about my job is that I get to be outside all day long doing exactly what I want to do.
