I have this down the street from my house and I asked a lineman about it. He was saying they will never leave this on power lines, just on the telecom lines. The arborists work for the power company, because even thought the utility poles are jointly owned the power company has the highest risk so they are responsible for management.

They will always remove the wood from power lines because wood is somewhat conductive, especially when it still fresh because of the water content. Leaving it on a high voltage line can increase the potential for a short. They don’t bother to cut them completely off the telecom lines because there is no risk of shock but a big risk to line damage. If they damage the telecom line they have to pay high fees to the telecom company for repair and risk creating an outage. Also the lines are designed to bear a certain amount of weight, as engineer have accounted for natural burdens like trees, ice and animals.

Also the wood eventually rots after a few seasons and will eventually fall off on its own.

I have suggestions:

1. high voltage. Let the wire burn its way thru the wood.
2. just replace that section of the wire.
3. it actually looks kinda stable already. Maybe just sell tickets to view it.

Would love to watch the beavers go brrrrrrrrriiieeeuuuuuuuuuuu on a jetpack 🤣

Stick a ladder under it with a "Free Firewood" sign.

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if we would just chuck woodchucks?

You move, thats not your neighbourhood anymore.

i dunno i think beavers and woodpeckers would end up not being precise enough and biting through wire.

termites will be the slow but safer option here

Send the electrical company to build a parallel power line, then encapsulate the troubled cable in quantum confinement and destroy of with anti matter.

Termite paratroopers could work. Attach a brain organoid backpack to each terminate, and let them roll.

Organic high-voltage capacitors. Very common in Scandinavia.

Flame throwers.

You just wait for the next storm. When the lines fall, they will be gone.

Wait, the voltage will burn through the wood for cheaper than dispatch.

Maybe it's a beaver drug dealer

Pray tell, what were the suggestions?

Thoughts and prayers seem to work well

Artificially accelerate the evolution of flying fungi, to break down dat fibrous lignin even faster! Either that or toss a pair of shoes up there so the wood doesn't get lonely.
