Cultivating healthy trees requires more than planting, watering, and watching them grow. Trees need extra tender loving care in the form of maintenance to protect them from injuries, predation, disease, and extreme environmental conditions. Their large branches can sap nutrients from the trunk and roots and can make them vulnerable to accidental damage. Pruning will encourage healthy growth but should be done carefully as it can be easy to cause tree injuries in the process. This aerosol version of Tanglefoot Tree Pruning Sealer will effectively close up any openings in the bark (no matter the cause) with one quick spray application. With this added protection from insect and/or disease entry, and interior exposure to the elements, your trees will be able to use their energy to produce long-term healthy growth.
