Every tree is useful, and all provide a food source or shelter for an array of organisms and wildlife. This applies to both dead and live trees which contain hollows and cavities that are important in providing nesting for Australia’s unique fauna. Stands of trees create their own microclimate and help us cool our homes and gardens and provide shelter from the elements. Trees absorb carbon dioxide and purify the air we breathe, helping us cool our planet.
Trees add aesthetic beauty to our garden and increase property values. Even an individual tree makes up a network with surrounding trees to help create wildlife corridors in your area. To assist with this wildlife benefit GVP Arbor Services can install possum, bird or bat boxes, as well as creating natural looking habitat hollows in trees.
