Infested, overgrown trees removed

Curtain Players during the final weeks of summer secured the services of Safe Tech Tree Service to remove several large trees from the Harlem Road property.

The removal of the trees was necessary as some of those trees were infested with the emerald ash borer, a beetle that in larvae stage cause great harm to the plants eventually killing them. Also, several trees had become overgrown, and the hanging limbs posed a safety hazard. The project resulted in a safer parking area, a more beautiful lot, and another step in halting the spread of the borer.
