Tree Service in Fosterburg, IL

Tree work in Fosterburg

Fosterburg is rural Madison County north of Alton: homes on an acre or more, farmland, woodlots and long gravel drives. Jobs out here tend to be bigger and different from in town: clearing an overgrown fence row, opening up a building site for a pole barn, cutting a path through the woods, taking out dead trees along a drive, or cleaning up after a storm knocks down half a tree line.

Trees we see in Fosterburg

Woodlots are oak and hickory with black walnut, hackberry and ash. Fence rows are full of Osage orange (hedge), honey locust, black locust and eastern red cedar. Bush honeysuckle and multiflora rose fill in the understory where the woods have been left alone.

Pests and diseases around Fosterburg

Dead ash trees stand along many Fosterburg tree lines and woodlots, killed by emerald ash borer. Oak wilt is present in the area; avoid cutting or wounding oaks in spring and early summer. Bagworms love the eastern red cedars.

Our arborists treat any tree disease or pest. See tree health care.

Storms and emergencies in Fosterburg

Trees along open fields and tree lines catch the full force of summer storms. Downed trees across drives and fences are a common call; our grapple trucks and track loaders clear them fast.

Local tip

If you heat with wood, tell us. On clearing jobs we can cut and stack the good hardwood (oak, hickory, hedge) for firewood instead of hauling it.
