Trees about
one inch diameter become culinary “ports in the storm” when the snow gets deep
enough to hinder Mickey and his ilk from foraging. They will nestle up next to
your fine $70.00 specimen and snack on it all winter if need be; it might not
be their meal of choice, but it’s a meal.
Your
best defense against these little backyard Disney characters, and their ugly tailless
step-cousins the Voles, are tree trunk raps. Be they plastic, or be they tar
paper brown, a good rap job will either keep them busy trying to gnaw through
the plastic or get a mouth full of tar. Either way your landscape investment is
safe.
As the tree trunk gets bigger the bark gets thicker; and as the bark gets thicker the effort it takes to get to the edible part gets greater. You can tell the severity of the winter by the size of the trees nibbled on.
