Don't use tape or twine, as it may girdle the tree. In April, remove the wrap so insects or diseases aren't tempted to move in. An easy way to remember... wrap by Thanksgiving and unwrap by Easter. For information on the care and maintenance of trees, visit the eXtension website: Trees and Shrubs.
Dead, damaged, and diseased branches should be removed as soon as possible. Otherwise, the best time to prune is in late winter, early spring, just before the tree begins to open its buds. Some trees, such as maple and dogwood, will bleed sap at this time of year. This bleeding should not harm them.
