Land Clearing Service in Hunt, Texas
Cedar Eaters performed mosaic land clearing service across 23 acres on a 47-acre property in Kerr County near Hunt, Texas. By performing this clearing the owners improved access throughout their property.
The land was previously inaccessible due to excessive overgrowth of Cedar. During the process of clearing Cedar Eaters found a water well that was unknown to the previous owner. The new land owner is now able to access parts of their property that had previously been inaccessible with vehicles and now has a working well that was discovered during the clearing process. Areas were mosaically cleared with our forestry mulcher to provide an edge for wildlife and creek access was opened up to provide better access to water features on the property. The mulch in these areas is relatively light in density and should improve native grass growth for years to come.

Common Questions About Land Clearing in Kerr County
No. On the Edwards Plateau the goal is management, not eradication. Mosaic clearing opens habitat and grass while leaving cover and edge that wildlife depend on.
Removing dense cedar frees up water that grasses and hardwoods can use, and mulch left on the ground slows runoff on caliche slopes. Results vary with soil depth and rainfall, but retention usually improves.
Yes. That’s most of what we clear in this county. Equipment gets matched to the terrain — mulchers on workable ground, skid steers and hand crews where rock and slope rule out bigger machines.
Clearing in patches rather than wall to wall, leaving edge between open ground and cover. It produces better browse and better hunting than clearing fence to fence.
Usually the first full growing season, faster where there’s still a seed bank in the soil. Ground under heavy cedar for decades sometimes needs reseeding.
