Reasons the poster is right:
The limb that fell through the bedroom ceiling
The oaks that fell all over the neighborhood during a hurricane soaking
The cost of having trees pruned or removed
The roots that caused a sewage backup
Acorns big as golf balls falling on the house, denting vehicles, hurled by lawn mower
Squirrels wintering in the attic.
Grass next to impossible to grow under them
Mower blades whacking lifted roots
Leaf falling season here lasts from November to March
Mildew and tree trash on roof
Edited...one more as duffysmom says....roots lifted both sidewalk and driveway....sigh

I love oaks and bought a lot with them in view...over yonder..is great!!
