Hmmm, hard to say without seeing the big picture.

Like, size of tree, other trees, etc etc.

If the owner has noticed a change in the last 3 months take it seriously, what are the targets/hazards? puta rope up and apply pressure, how much movement has it got.
Usually we opt for a safety first approach but bracing is always an option.
Also check stress level of owner- this can be a major driver in decision making.
Where you at tree kiwi???good to see another kiwi at treeworld.

Agree with both previous posts...tree species? Limb size weight? Wind exposure....but most importantly target? Very hard to say for sure but based soley on thelittle pic one single cobra could provide peace of mind for the owner...very quick and easy to install.
