Why Underbrushing is a Better Option Than Clearing an Entire Area

Posted on May 4, 2020 by Daniel at Clean Cut

Any bushes, shrubs, or small trees that grow underneath larger trees is called underbrush, and this type of growth is considered undesirable and invasive to surrounding vegetation. Some types of underbrush are poisonous and can contribute to the spread of a fire. They can also make the surrounding vegetation look shabby and not well kept. That’s why underbrushing can make your property and your landscaping look better.

Here are some other reasons why regular underbrush removal is a good idea:

  • It improves property access – If you allow underbrush to take over your lawn, you make it harder for you, your family, and your guests to access the property. The whole area will be covered with overgrown bushes, shrubs, and other types of undesirable vegetation. But if you perform regular underbrushing, you’ll have a more visible path that leads to your property.
  • It improves property aesthetics – Allowing underbrush to grow will make your property look shabby and not well kept. Every part of your home will look cluttered and untidy. But if you remove underbrush on a regular basis, it will make your property look more aesthetically pleasing.
  • It makes your property more usable – Underbrushing makes your property more accessible, but it can also make it more usable. Whether it’s a lawn, a playing field, or yard, an excessive amount of underbrush will make these areas impossible to use. So if you want to take full advantage of these areas, it’s important to perform regular underbrush removal.
  • It increases property value – If you plan to put your home up for sale, regular underbrushing will make it more valuable to potential buyers. And anyone who sees a home with neat and well-maintained vegetation might be willing to pay more – not just because of its neatness but because it’s something on which they won’t have to spend extra time.
  • Improves health of vegetation — It improves the health of the trees and grasses by letting the mulch break down and return the nutrients back into their property. This will also enhance the aesthetics and value of the property.
