Applying a tree guard can serve many benefits to help in a successful tree planting, specifically in the first few years.
- Prevents wildlife damage - Tree guards can protect young trees from rodents, rabbits and deer that may chew on the bark, leading to damage or in some cases girdling the trunk and causing death.
- Prevents mechanical damage - Trees are often at risk of damage from lawn mowers, trimmers, and other garden tools. Tree guards can provide a physical barrier that helps protect against these accidents.
- Environmental damage - Tree guards can help reduce the environmental damage caused by sun scald and frost damage to the trunk.
- Includes 3 buttons per guard*
