Warning signs worth an assessment in Fort Wayne include ash with bark splits or D-shaped exit holes, mushrooms at the base of oaks or maples, cracks where large limbs meet, and trees whose roots were cut for sidewalk or utility work. A certified arborist can rate the risk and say whether pruning, cabling or removal makes sense.
