Fruit is the entire debris story. Ripe pawpaws drop in a concentrated window from late August into September, bruise on impact and rot into a sweet mush on the ground that pulls in raccoons, opossums, deer and yellowjackets; the large leaves turn clear yellow and drop in fall, but nobody has ever called about pawpaw leaves.
Typically 15 to 20 feet tall and wide in shade, occasionally to 25 feet in the open, with a working lifespan around 20 to 40 years. That puts removal in the lowest cost bracket — no bucket, no crane, no rigging — with the labor being suckers and hauling, not the takedown.
