Works a charm, summary of recurring review topics
With the range of views being expressed in reviews I was a little hesitant tk buy this product, but very glad I did. I thought it would be valuable to others to address a few of the recurring themes in other reviews.Stickiness and ease of application:This product is extraordinarily sticky and this will get all over your hands during application. Gloves are absolutely essential and a second pair of (gloves) hands is extremely helpful. We found one person unfolding the band and wrapping around the tree, with another person cutting to length and securing to be the best process.Included twineThe included twine might be usable on large trees, but on my small saplings it was absolutely useless. Chuck it before you start and grab a roll of decent electrical tape. This also helps with knobbly trunks as you can bend the band over the bump and secure it top and bottom. This has closed up all of the little gaps allowing ants under the band.Ants crossing the grease:Yes the ants can still cross the grease, it slows them down a fair bit but they make it across. Regardless of this fact the number of ants above the band has reduced from several dozen per day, to a singular ant in the week since. It is definitely discouraging them from crossing, so serves its purpose quite well.I'd be happy to recommend this product to others with ant problems in fruit trees to be used in conjuction with other pest control measures such as water jetting and manual removal of ants (the sticky gloves after applying are brilliant for picking ants off of the leaves)

The product is fine, but.........
But it was delivered at least two hours after the driver claimed and it was not "handed to the resident" it was dumped on the doorstep with no attempt made to contact us.And how else can I complain to Amazon??

Does what it says on the box!
You have to keep replacing the sticky thing around the tree, especially after a couple of rainfall as it totally looses it's stickiness. Overall it dies the job and has trapped lots of pesty ants crawling up my apple tree.

It works!
I had a steady line of ants heading up and down my plum tree and my apple tree so got this. I put it round my trees, brushed off the ants that were above it and no more ants! Problem solved.
