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.
Trunk wounds that penetrate the bark will damage the cambium layer, a thin layer of vascular tissue, which is vital to movement of water and nutrients. If less than 25% of the bark around the trunk has been damaged, the tree will probably recover. When fresh wounds occur on the trunk, the injured bark should be removed carefully, leaving healthy bark that is sound and tight to the wood. A wound dressing (tree paint) is not necessary.
