FAQs

Do tree guards inhibit growth?

Metal tree guards, when properly installed, do not inhibit the growth of trees. In fact, they provide protection against external factors such as wildlife, pests, and harsh weather conditions, promoting healthier and undisturbed tree growth. Tree guards offer a safeguard during the vulnerable early stages of a tree's life, allowing it to establish itself without being damaged.

How tall should a tree guard be?

The height of a tree guard depends on the size and type of tree it is protecting. As a general rule, tree guards should extend above the expected browsing height of animals or the potential threat from mechanical damage. For young or small trees, guards around 4 to 5 feet high are often suitable, while larger trees may require taller guards.

When should you remove tree guards?

Tree guards are used during a tree's establishment phase, typically for a few years. Removal timing depends on factors such as trunk thickness, the tree's ability to withstand damage, and local environmental conditions. Guards should be taken off when the tree is mature enough to thrive without protection and when there's no risk of crowding.
