What is Forestry Mulching?
Forestry mulching is a land-clearing technique that utilises a powerful machine equipped with a horizontal grinding drum. This drum shreds trees, brush, and other vegetation into a fine mulch, leaving it on-site to decompose naturally.
Our industry-leading, low-impact machinery will meticulously mulch, cut, and grind forest debris, regrowth, and stumps, transforming the site into a clean, pristine space to work on. The resulting organic layer will naturally decompose, nourishing the soil and creating an optimal environment for future growth.
Transform your landscape quickly and sustainably with The Tree Doctors' expert vegetation and forestry mulching services. Our skilled arborists utilise advanced mulching machinery to clear land, manage overgrown areas, and prepare sites for development, all while minimising environmental impact.
The Advantages of a Forestry Mulcher Machine
Mulching machines streamline the land-clearing process by processing trees and vegetation on-site, eliminating the need for multiple steps like site preparation, cutting, felling, hauling, and clean-up. This reduces the need for various machines, such as excavators, tree shears, wood chippers, grinders, and hauling equipment. With just one mulching machine, the process becomes faster, more cost-effective, and lowers fuel consumption and emissions.
These machines efficiently clear land of unwanted trees and vegetation with minimal disturbance to the soil. Unlike traditional land clearing methods, which often increase the risk of erosion by uprooting trees and disrupting the soil, mulching preserves the soil structure, reducing environmental impact.
How Our Forestry Mulcher Service Works
Assessment and Planning: Evaluating the landscape to determine the most suitable mulching strategy.
Material Selection: Choosing high-quality mulch materials that meet the specific needs of your trees and soil.
Application: Properly applying the mulch at the correct depth and distance from the tree trunk to avoid issues such as root rot or pest infestations.
How Beneficial is Mulching?
What is Mulch?
Mulch is any material spread over the soil surface that nourishes the garden as it breaks down. It is primarily used for weed control. While it may not eliminate weeds, it helps suppress their growth, reducing the need for weeding over time. But this is just one of the many reasons why mulch is so valuable.
Moisture regulation
Mulch helps regulate soil moisture, whether during heavy rains or dry, sunny days. It absorbs excess water during downpours and helps retain moisture when conditions are dry.
Temperature regulation
In addition to moisture control, mulch also stabilises soil temperature. It prolongs the growing season by keeping the soil warmer in cooler weather and protects plants during overwintering. In summer, it can lower soil temperature by up to 13 degrees, protecting plants from heat stress.
Reduces erosion and crusting
If topsoil erosion is a problem, mulch helps keep valuable nutrients from being washed away. On clay soils, it prevents the hard, cracked crust that forms when the soil is left unprotected.
Prevents disease
Mulch acts as a protective barrier against fungal spores that can cause diseases like early blight and powdery mildew, which are often spread by rain-splashing soil onto plants. By feeding the soil and creating this protective layer, mulch promotes healthier plants overall.
