They are aggressive woody weeds with a very dense canopy. The canopy shades out other indigenous plants native to Florida. The Brazilian Pepper tree is one of the worst species harming our natural ecosystem.
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection recommends removal of all Brazilian Pepper trees including their root system. Roots are able to resprout so care should be taken when removing any Brazilian Pepper tree. The intertwining branches make removal time consuming even with proper equipment.
Anyone with sensitive skin should be very cautious. The sap and even the leaves can cause dermatitis. Wear protective clothing when dealing with Brazilian Pepper trees.
Proper removal can be easily achieved with Walker Tree Service. Let us remove that invasive tree and put harmony back to our Florida habitat.
