The challenge of leaf removal has prompted a string of inventions, large and small. In 1936, Chester Greenwood received a patent for a modern spring steel rake, which featured separate, resilient metal teeth that could be replaced if an individual tooth broke.
Based on information from the USDA Forest Service, the lifetime of trees varies by region and species, but generally ranges from 50 years to 300 years of age, making tree landscaping one of the best long term investments that you could ever make.
Unfortunately, all the leaves your mature trees drop during the autumn months can make it very difficult for people to safely navigate through your yard to your door. If you’re worried that people could get hurt, it’s smart to hire a service to assist in leaf removal.
