[nafex] tree guards

[mdangelo@primary.net]

The only thing I found that actually works to keep out small 
critters,like voles and rabbits is to make a small fence of 
like chicken wire and surround the tree. personally, I found 
that in every species that i used those plastic tree 
guards,like TREE ESSEntials sells ,they either did no help 
in  stimulating tree growth and or they caused the tree to 
cook in the sun,even the PawPaws. Maybe they just can't work 
in this steamy Zone5b Karst topography,but I tried them on 
over 40 species of trees and with above said results.
