Not here, just call a landscaping company and they come and take it out. Its a desert so none of these tress are "indiginous" to the area. Plus its that much less water you're using, and they like that out here.
Anyway the tree in the back was cracking the wall and getting to close to the pool. The tree on the side was beginning to crack the wall on that side and lifting the concrete pad the the pool pump and filter are on. So those trees definately had to go.
