Do you remove dead ponderosa pines killed by bark beetles?
Yes. We remove dead and dying ponderosa pines killed by bark beetles throughout Payson, Rim Country, and the White Mountains, including trees close to homes, cabins, driveways, and power lines.
Why should I remove a beetle-killed ponderosa pine quickly?
Dead pines dry out and become brittle, so limbs or the whole tree can fall without warning, especially in wind or snow. They also add dry fuel near your home during wildfire season, and beetles can move from infested trees to other stressed pines nearby. Removing them early lowers these risks.
How can I tell if my ponderosa pine has bark beetles?
Common signs include needles turning yellow, red, or brown from the top down, small pitch tubes or reddish boring dust on the bark, and tiny holes in the trunk. If you notice these signs, call us and we can take a look.

I think my tree is dying. Can you assess whether it's a risk?
Yes. We offer tree risk assessments to check whether a dying or damaged tree is a danger to your home, cabin, driveway, or power lines. Warning signs include dead or falling branches, thinning or discolored needles and leaves, cracks or splits in the trunk, a new or worsening lean, mushrooms or rot at the base, and loose bark. We'll look at the tree's condition and what it could hit if it fails, then let you know whether it can be saved with trimming or should be removed.
