Since root injury may often go unnoticed until the tree begins to fail, this video promotes awareness of situations that may cause root injury and affect tree health. Areas of discussion include damage created by construction, such as soil disturbance, compaction, and physical damage to the roots. Also addressed are tree health problems that may result from trenching and tunneling around trees. The
Root Injury and Tree Health video and its
companion booklet are ideal for arborists’ use in educating developers, builders, homeowners’ associations, garden clubs, and others on proper practices to avoid root injury. (9 min., booklet, 12 pp., developed in partnership with the USDA Forest Service.)
