Trees, especially young ones and those with delicate barks, can take a beating from climate conditions, animals and insects that prey on them, as well as landscaping equipment like lawn movers or string trimmers. Tanglefoot TangleGuard Banding Material gives your trees a layer of protection from these types of hazards.
You can use Tanglefoot TangleGuard Banding Material on its own to protect your trees from sun-scald, rodent and animal feeding, and objects that could hit them. But, when you apply Tree Tanglefoot Insect Barrier (or a similar product) to it, they form a strong and sticky barrier that will thwart any insects crawling up a tree to feed on or nest in it. While, of course, still offering protection from the other dangers.
This 3" x 50", ready-to-use banding material is lightweight enough to not smother or otherwise harm your tree, but it's waterproof and strong enough to stand up to the elements. In fact, this banding will last all season long. Always remove banding at the end of the season.
