Cracked, sunken bark on the sunny side of a trunk this time of year? That's sunscald, not storm damage.
Thin-barked trees like maples and honey locusts take the hit hardest, especially if a shade tree nearby was recently removed. Once the bark splits, insects and decay get an easy way in.
Our crews catch it early and recommend the right fix before a small crack becomes a real wound.
