Yard areas requiring work

This is an older home/area requiring some additional yard work. Most of this is due to established tree growth and a very dry season. The surrounding trees are shedding more than usual and have been shedding an at increased frequency as we get closer to fall.

A leaf blower or weekly gardner is a Must! The leaves are shedding an excessive amount of leaves every day. Best to own a leaf blower (collected into pile then into Yard waste container).

I have asked one neighbor politely to trim back one of the trees in his backyard. I love the trees and the squirrels (black and grey/brown), raccoons, scrub jays, crows, and other wild life which lives in them. Almost every morning I hear a barking crow convention which acts as my alarm clock.

Below are some photos of dry tree hangings off these massive trees (50ft+) which are a potential fire hazard as well as property damage.

The good thing here is, the Mountain View Fire Department and Police are right down the street!



Super Dry!
