Spanish Moss Removal in Kerrville, Texas
Many times our customers simply do not want the moss in their trees. To them, it's an eye sore and they prefer to have us do Spanish moss removal on them. Keep in mind that the moss is not always required to be removed. The question we get the most is, will the moss kill it? The answer is no. Moss takes nothing from them, it simply uses the branches and foliage as an anchor point. Referred to as what’s known as an “epiphyte,” Spanish moss works to absorb elements from the air—such as water, calcium, and additional nutrients. In doing so, it becomes very damp and excels in shaded, wet areas—similar to ball moss. With limited light and increased capacity to block the wind, an infected tree’s branches are put in a dangerous position for survival.
