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.
Wrap the trees from the ground up to the first primary limb. Some gardeners will even wrap beyond this point while the tree is still young. Apply the tree wrap so that you overlap on the previous wrap and secure the top with string to hold in place. Second, I would recommend staking the tree for the first year until the roots are firmly established. By using stakes and rope, you can prevent excessive movement and damage to newly planted trees.
