Reinforce the protection of your newly planted fruit trees by placing mesh protectors on them

Over the next few weeks, you should take extra care of them, as they are at their most vulnerable until they are perfectly rooted and adapted to their new location. Don't forget to place mesh protectors on your younger trees to promote their development.

January is the ideal time to plant fruit trees, especially in the warmer areas of Spain, but in the early stages of growth of these young trees we must protect them. For this, it is highly recommended to use a tree trunk protector, which is placed around the plant. We must take into account that, in some rural areas, animals live and it is very likely that our tender fruit trees will be a very appetizing snack for rodents, rabbits, hares... which would leave the tree very weakened or even cause it to dry out.

Among the main functions of fruit tree protectors, we highlight:

• Protection against animal attacks
• Protection against wind and sun
• Provides a greenhouse effect that protects against frost
• Protection against herbicides

Our protectors also protect our shrubs from frost, providing shade and acting as a windbreak. The greenhouse effect they provide inside allows trees to grow in a microclimate that improves their development.

If we are used to applying herbicide to our garden to eliminate weeds that absorb water and fertilizers that we provide to our plants, then the mesh protector will be very useful by preventing the herbicide from coming into contact with the trunk.

In addition, they allow the trunk to grow without strangling it. Our tree protectors come in different sizes to use the most suitable one depending on the type of plant.

The combi mesh protector is made of polyethylene and is characterized by combining an opaque tube section at the bottom, which protects the plant from herbicides, with a mesh at the top that allows ventilation. If you also add a stake, you reinforce the protection against animal attacks.
