What is a Arborist?
An arborist (or tree surgeon) is a professional who practices arboriculture, the management and maintenance of trees (generally in an urban environment). While trees provide many benefits, they can also be very large, heavy, and complex organisms that require professional monitoring and treatment to ensure they are healthy and safe. An arborist's work may include some or all of the following: planting, pruning, structural support, diagnosis and treatment of diseases, insects, or abiotic disorders, lightning protection, and tree removal. Arborists may also plan, consult, write reports and give legal testimony. While some aspects of this work may be done on the ground or in an office, much of it requires the arborist to physically climb the trees, using ropes, harnesses, and other climbing equipment.
