TanglefootTangleguard Banding Material, 3 in. x 50 ft.

I bought this most awesome tree tape to wrap my trees and protect them from the elements. So far, is works great and I was even able to graft a limb from a part of the tree the broke off using this tape. Pretty good solution. I would buy it again, if I needed to.

This wrap works great! Disregard negative reviews of and similar products by people who clearly don't know how to use this type of tape. For example, you DO NOT use any type of glue or adhesive with this tape as one reviewer said. And you don't start wrapping from the top as another person said. You simply start wrapping from the bottom of the trunk, overlapping each round about 1/3rd or 1/2 the width of the wrap while using moderate tension. It's the overlap that holds it on, not goo. YOU SHOULD NOT USE GOO of any type with tree wrap! For the last turn (at the top), use some waterproof tape. Wrap it around the last turn of tree wrap a couple times. That's all there is too it. I just did it to a young tree with about a 5" diameter trunk that was about 7 feet high in less than three minutes. It worked beautifully. It's so simple that I'm amazed that some people make it seem like it's rocket science. The roll did that tree with a couple feet to spare which I just wrapped several times around the top before taping. It worked so well that I just ordered more for another tree.

The wrap does not adhere to itself. The tanglefoot goo is required to attach wrap to the tree. This is an extremely messy operation. Recommend using disposable gloves when working with the tanglefoot goo. Also recommend putting wrap high enough from ground to keep pets, or kids, from accessing the wrap and goo. My first wrap was about 18" above the ground and our dog got into the goo. Was able to move wrap, and goo, to about 48" above ground (very messy) but high enough dog could not access. Still trying to remove goo from dog fur.

Use this every year except this year, was not available on Amazon unless you wanted to pay $30 a roll. Had to find another product.

This is not worth the money and effort. The tanglefoot works well, but the banding is pretty much a pain. Try using bands of duct tape instead.

Planted a Dogwood 3 years ago. Harsh winter weather started to wear on the bark. Used this wrap and it saves my Tree from harsh winter weather.

very hard and messy to work with, glue stuff you put on it does not hold to tree with rough bark. fell right off. terrible! waste of money!

I used this barrier and coated it with insecticide on my trees when we had a gypsy moth infestation. I did have to staple it to the tree in order for it to stay but I had it up all season and it never got soggy or tore.
