Comments (17)I would call an arborist to look at your trees for disease and for judicious pruning. I have a heavily wooded yard and know that trees have to be maintained for their own health. Your canopy can be thinned so that more light can get to your lawn area and so that your house can breathe. (This will save your having to paint every other year!). You will still have shade, but will have less moss and mildew on your patio and your siding. (I LOVE my power washer!) To deter deer, fox, skunks, possum, and raccoons you might consider fencing or, as I do, spray deer and rodent repellent (by the gallon!) on your hostas and other tasty plants. (Rub Vicks under your nose to stop your gag reflex!). And remember....the critters ALWAYS win! ;)...See MoreAre green giant arborvitaes deer resistent?
