Queen palm trimming and pod removal
 
would like a recommendation for someone to trim queen palms and remove seed pods. Call Fred at 352 750 6363

You can find a cerified arborist at treesaregood.com, as I learned from master gardeners.
The seed pods casings are heavy, pointed, and able to do bodily harm, so Headgear for the pruner is recommended!

Queen Palm trimming
 
We have always trimmed Queen Palms about 1 foot below ground level....Sorry....Not a fan of palms, but bugs LOVE them...Ugh!....Plus
they are a maintenance nightmare!

Agree with above post, installed three and they were beautiful -- then. Now the pods open and drop whatever it is inside and mess up the rocks below. Never see any bugs.

We will be removing 2 that are over 30 feet tall. Too messy and hard to take care of.

Recommend Gonzalez Palm Tree and Hedge Trimming. 352-409-8838. Came same day. Reasonable price. Do not remove pods yourself. Very heavy with sharp ends. People have died doing it themselves. Trimming will look better by a professional.

I trim mine right after pod opens, not while it has the sharp pointy end
