TREE CLIMBING

Tree climbing is a very dangerous job. Multiple things can happen when you are climbing. You could fall from the tree all the way to your death, you could cut yourself with the saw and bleed out before you can make it down, and you can even be attracted by squirrels. Even though its dangerous it can be a good job for the money and a very good work out.   ]
   
The dangers of climbing are also fun! Being at the 
top of a high tree is an amazing sight. at the top     
of a massive tree anything could happen. you 
can fall from the top and tumble hundreds of feet 
to your death. But at the top of a tree you have a 
whole new respect for the world and everything you 
see.  







Hundreds of people every year die while climbing trees. Over 300 People each year die while climbing. Either these deaths are caused by falling or they are caused by something else. Lots of people die by getting electrocuted by power lines or by the tops of dead trees falling down and just completely destroying them. if a climber cuts himself while in the tree they only have a certain amount of time to get down before they die. Say you are at the top of a 100 foot oak tree and you happen to cut a main artery in your arm or leg then you are done for. 



 
 
Tree climbing is very dangerous but in the long run the money is worth it and it is very fun. Tree climbers usually tend to make $59,000 per year. not a bad living for doing something you love and a good work out.

Tree Fertilization

Tree fertilization is very important for the health of a tree. If a tree is starting to die then if you need to get it fertilized. Once its fertilized the tree will start to get the nutrients and be healthy again.when nutrients are deficient in the ground fertilization is needed for the tree to get the proper food. Once the nutrients are in the tree it can live healthy. If there isnt any food getting up to the top of the tree then it will start to die.

People get the fertilizer into the tree in many different ways.






 There are mannnyyyy different tools. There are tools on trucks that pump it right into the root. Also there is some pumps that spray fertilizer around the tree to get the ground wet so the tree can suck it up. If you drill a small hole into the tree then you can buy hand held pumps that puts the chemicals right into the tree. that would probably be the most efficient way to get you tree fertilized.






Once a tree is fertilized it begins to change from injection 1. then once you inject it one time you have to get it done every so often until the tree is healthy again. If the tree isnt living after the injections then its probably got a fungus that is not curable. If that is the case then the tree needs to be cut down since there is no hope of it coming back. But in the long run, getting your trees fertilized will be better since trees are beautiful and should be taken care of properly.
