Do fungal mushrooms on the trunk and root system of my tree mean it must be removed?
Fungal mushrooms on the trunk or root system of a tree indicate that the structural integrity of the tree has been compromised and is currently in the heartwood is in the process of decaying. We recommend a tree be removed within six months of fungal mushrooms being noticed. This is because the tree can decay for multiple years before the exterior fungal mushroom shows up. Ganoderma root rot and Amarillo root rot are two common fungal issues that produce visible conks on the tree trunk and or root system of a tree.
How do I know if my pine tree is dying and needs to be removed?
In layman’s terms when a pine tree dies it goes through four stages of death. In the stage one the needles turn brown and fall off. In the stage two, after the needles have fallen off, it is dropping pinecones. In stage three, if the tree has not yet been removed, it is starting to drop tree limbs. In stage four, the bark is peeling off the main trunk. Once a pine tree canopy has turned brown, we recommend the tree should be removed within 3 to 6 months for safety. Often times in the state of Georgia Pine beetles are the culprit behind the cause of a pine tree suddenly dying.
