Funniest thing....I've heard of trees disappearing overnight.Of course,I'd NEVER do such a thing,but I've been told that people take down trees durring the week or in the evening when no one is around with electric chain saws which are very quiet,trim the stump off at,or just below ground level,rake up the chips and then scatter pine needles or leaves over the scene of the crime.They told me,also that they cut the branches and trunk into 10'-12' lengths to fit in their trailer and then move the trailer somewhere else ,just in case someone comes snooping.
These criminals justify their deeds and ease their guilt by planting a small tree somewhere else on the property......thus neutralizing any change to their carbon footprint.
