Ficus elastica pruning


Hi,

I'm looking for info on how and when to prune a huge Ficus carica.
This plant have grown too much (it's located in a corner of a 
courtyard) and have to be reduced and shaped.
This garden is in a mild climate and frost-free zone (I live in south 
Italy), near the sea.

I've heard that it's better to burn cuts after pruning to prevent 
latex losses.
Anyone knows something about that?

Thanks in advance

Bye
Paolo
