Dangerous tree limbs — Alkmaar, North Holland
Dead, cracked, or overhanging tree limbs can fall without warning, damaging roofs, cars, power lines, or injuring people. Storm-damaged or diseased trees are especially risky. A tree-service professional can safely prune or remove hazardous limbs and assess the overall health of the tree.
Why this is common in Alkmaar
The city's compact urban gardens and canal-side plantings require specialist knowledge of wet, peat-based soils.
