A recently finished deer and gopher proof garden bed.

The anti-deer cage will also be used as a trellis for deer-resistant flowering vines. The bed is 8" deep and cage is 8' tall, a very custom job specific to the area and planned usage. Built in irrigation will water along with the lawn sprinklers. All the wood is treated lumber, or rot resistant cedar.

Along with the decorative hinges and hardware, the client has plans for further aesthetic touches.

These black lines under the bark of this dead pine tree is part of a fungal network of the root-rotting Armillaria. This fungus is commonly found anywhere there is rotting wood, however it will also attack and kill living trees and shrubs. Armillaria can occupy areas up to several acres.
Thinning tree stands to allow more light is one of the best ways to deal with this, along with clearing the base of the tree to allow sun and air access to the top of the roots and base of the trunk. Systemic, organic fungicides can help additionally in problem areas.

Loss of trees within the same area, especially when death occurrs so fast that the leaves or needles do not fall off, is a common sign of this fungus.

Dead trees create certain dangers, those dangers are amplified when the tree falls and is suspended 25 feet above a road.

This tree had long been dead and had lost it's top at an unknown time. The tops of dead trees can be especially dangerous, being capable of falling with little to no warning.

Obvious from this situation that the risk is present until the entire tree is on the ground.

Plenty of oak here to be processed!

Good firewood and increasing defensible space and fire safety, what a win-win.
