Hey guys and gals, I am a ************ member, and know NOTHING about trees. One of my customers asked me a few questions about trees today, that I couldn;t answer, and couldnt find any results about by searching... Here goes:
#1- New septic 3 years ago, built up the bank with fill, burried some 5-10 trees approx 2 feet in fill. I know this can kill the tree, but will the damage have already been done, or can I reverse it by digging out the dirt around the base of the trees to the original level, and building makeshift wells for them? Also, is there anything else I can do to help the trees after digging them out?
#2- If there was major root damage done to another tree (same area, same contruction, but not burried), when will we likely see the outcome? It was also 3 years ago, should it be dead already, or might it die in a few years from this older damage?
Thank you folks very much for your help,
