I guess not as it sounds plausible. But My dad had his own business and from the time I was 14 I was cutting up logs for fire wood and ran into much steel as one might suspect from trees in residential areas....never had a problem nor ever heard of one.

Don't you think many residential tree removers have hit nails and the like in the course of such work? How many Tree Houses have been built in residential ares or signs nailed into trees or any number of other reasons nails or lag bolts were put into trees.

In the act of cabling trees for the purpose of support I have put many a steel lag bolt which would be eventually be grown over and thus invisible. Still as one in the business for over ten years and Dad for thirty I never heard of injuries have you ?
