Protect the tender bark of young trees.
Protect your investment from gnawing animals, sun scald and more. Our lightweight perforated plastic spirals are easy to install and last for many years. Put them on right after you plant, which is when your new tree is most vulnerable. Occasionally adjust the spiral and let it “grow” with your tree, and remove any grass that may have grown up inside it. Also take care to keep lawn equipment from hitting the guards, which can girdle the tree, a major cause of mortality. Use Stark Tree Guards along with our Tree Circles to provide protection for both the trunk and roots.
Ships in packs of 3.
Options:
- Choose the 25 cm (10″) guard for columnar trees
- Choose the 50 cm (20″) guard for young trees
- Choose the 101 cm (40″) guard for larger trees

We call these tree socks. They help the guy with the lawn mower to avoid my baby trees, and they protect from sun scald.

Small and light tree guards ward off deer like nothing else i have tried.

I have used Stark Bros tree skirts before and love the protection they offer my new trees! Good idea.
Arthur Read –
The tree guards seemed to work as promised as there was no damage to my saplings. My only complaint is with the packaging in that you can only order in multiples of three, otherwise I would have bought four.

More than added protection from rodents in our field. Only thing that has worked so far. I highly recommend this product.

Stark tree guards work well to protect newly purchased trees. The tree guards give the new tree stability and protect from all types of damage such as critter damage.

I recently purchased these tree guards for my young fruit trees. They easily wrapped around the tree trunk. So far, so good. I haven’t had any problem with rabbits or the free-range chickens munching on the trees. I recommend this product and will be ordering more in the future.

I’m happy with the Stark Tree Guards I bought. I like the expandable nature of the design. They do a good job of protecting my trees from rabbits.
