trees

I tried to guess what the most dangerous job in Missouri is, but I was way wrong. It's a profession that isn't glamorous to say the least, but 33 workers lost their lives in this line of work in just one year.

There is apparently concern that an invasive beetle that is a known tree killer could be affecting Missouri soon if not already based on a warning by the state.

There are so many gorgeous walnut trees in Missouri and that's what has officials concerned as there is a tiny beetle that kills these huge trees headed directly toward the Show Me State.

Considering how many trees you'll find in Missouri, to say that one is the tallest is quite a statement. There is one massive oak in the Show Me State that has been recognized as the grandest of them all and it's a 400-year-old treasure.

Messing around with anything that belongs to your neighbor is tricky. One of the most commonly contested topics with those that live next to you are trees and their limbs that sometimes dangle over your yard. But, is it OK to trim them in Missouri? The short answer is sometimes.

There are no reports yet, but the University of Missouri says it's inevitable that both Missouri and Illinois will see a dreaded invasive species make its way to this part of America.

Sometimes you just need to get it done. That was apparently what was happening in Illinois recently when a driver captured video of a man dragging a big ole tree down the road behind his pickup truck.

Have you ever been on a hike and wondered what the paint on trees mean? It's not unusual and normally not a big deal, but if you see an orange X on a tree trunk in Missouri, it would be a good idea to stay out.

How can a tree solve a murder? When it has unique DNA like one in Missouri that helped convict a Boone County man of killing his wife.

I want to state clearly that I am not a tree removal expert, but I'm pretty sure this isn't how it's supposed to work. A brand new video share shows a crane that was trying (remember that word) to remove a tree end up on top of a house.
