Maintaining forested property has many benefits. The practice known as ecological forestry, which includes selective removal of trees and brush in overgrown forests (i.e.: thinning), leads to significant decreases in total insurance premiums for homes and commercial property, while also reducing the impact of wildfires in communities using these practices. Maintaining forested property can not only help protect against wildfires but also save money on fire insurance premiums.
