If you’re dealing with Russian olive trees in Seattle, you may have noticed their invasive nature and the challenges they pose to your landscape. These trees can quickly overtake your garden, disrupt local ecosystems, and even pose safety risks due to their brittle branches.

Plus, once they’re gone, you’ll enjoy a low-maintenance yard that’s easier to manage.
