Poison Oak Removal in Tuolumne County
Leaves of three? Let us handle it. We cut poison oak, bag it, and haul it away so you never have to touch it.
Leaves of Three, Let Us Handle It
Poison oak grows all over the foothills. It hides in oak woodland, climbs fences, creeps under decks, and mixes into the brush along driveways. The leaves come in threes, shiny green in spring and bright red in fall.
The plant is coated in an oil, and that oil is what causes the rash. And here's the nasty part: the oil stays active on dead branches, gloves, and tools for a long time. Even a bare winter stem can get you. That's why most folks don't want to touch this job, and honestly, they shouldn't.
How We Remove It
Our crew suits up, cuts the poison oak out, bags it, and hauls it off your property. We never burn it. Burning poison oak puts the oil in the smoke, and breathing that can put someone in the hospital. We haul it away instead.
- Cut and removed by a crew in protective gear
- Bagged and hauled away, never burned
- Fence lines, deck edges, tree lines, and trails
- Tools cleaned after every job so oil doesn't spread
Keep It From Coming Back
Poison oak regrows from its roots, so one cutting rarely kills it for good. Cutting it back hard once or twice a year keeps it off your usable space. Many customers add it to a regular brush clearing visit and never think about it again.
What It Costs
We price by the project. A small patch by the fence is cheap. A hillside woven with it costs more. Either way you get one number before we start, and the estimate is free. Curious about pricing? Read our guide on brush clearing costs in Tuolumne County.
