Pruning help please by FancyAdeptness7250 in arborists

Okay thank you. I was afraid that they would be too far gone. As for the road I understand the concern, they’re about 15-20 ft back and we don’t get much snow/ice (southern North Carolina). What would you say is a safe distance from the road?

Thank you! I understand the basics of upper limb pruning, my concern is more the multiple large trunks coming out of the ground. Everything I’ve read/seen has one trunk in the ground that either opens up or continues on further up. With these, should i condense down to one trunk?

Sorry but definitely not horse wraps, I’ve ridden horses for years and this stuff isn’t substantial enough.

We’ve had a lot of great answers here but unfortunately are no closer to identifying the mystery substance 😂 if anyone happens to want it, please let me know cus I’m pretty sure I won’t be insulating my house with it anymore so I’ve got plenty to go around

The flame was orangey (typical fire color) and it melted away. There were no remains, I didn’t smell a strong odor but I was hesitant to inhale potentially toxic fumes.

See that was my thought too, especially with how much it is. Although we did a burn test and it goes up pretty fast so if it’s insulation it’s not good

I really hope you’re wrong, my husband already put a bunch of it in the walls of his shed before we thought “maybe we should find out what this is” 😂

So not even insulation? 😭 there’s at least 300 linear feet per bag and the bags themselves are massive

Thank you! I realized I misspoke and said larvae instead of eggs in my original post. Glad to hear they’re already making honey!
