    Stop fruit tree pests without insecticide.

    It’s a fiddly job and you need to wear gloves but done all our fruit trees didn’t want to use insecticide spray this is good way to stop pests. Did ten trees with double pack.

  • Most critical review

    should have bought a different brand.

    It is very difficult to use. Trying to peel the paper off the sticky plastic proved difficult and if you accidently folded the green plastic, it is impossible to unstick. You end up with a part sticky band and part not! It is a must to put on string to keep in place otherwise you can't keep it tight to the tree. I used Fruit tree grease to increase the barrier.

  • Fruit Tree 'bands' to stop 'winter moths'

    Unable to give a review of this product. Completely new to me never having owned apple trees. This is the 1st time bought and, found using this product somewhat messy and sticky. I will have to wait and see hopefully, later this year I will know just how good these 'grease bands' are at deterring 'winter moths'

  • Sticky

    Surprisingly wide band and very sticky. I did not find it easy to put on the tree without getting a fair amount of glue on my fingers. Not the easiest to clean off.

  • Excellent price and certainly worth trying in the fruit trees

    First time we have used these a bit more instruction as to whether the sticky bit faces the bark or it’s outside. Next summer and the fruits from the tree will say if they have worked or not.

  • Good but not perfect

    Managed to cover six trees with one roll. Only one problem on older trees insects could get by the bands in bark crevice's so i all so used a band of grease above them problem fixed.

  • Found it difficult to apply you definite...

    Found it difficult to apply you definitely need a extra pair of hands manage to get it all over my hands ✋️ then couldn't get it of my hands sticky. tried gloves they just stuck together gave up in the end .

  • Nearly impossible to use without getting covered in sticky gunk.

    The item comes in two strips back to back, it is impossible to apply to tree with out getting covered, if they came in one strip with a peal of back it would be easier to use. I would not recomend this product.

  • good value

    Worked well last year so should be ok again, bit difficult to put on in any breeze. No string or wire in pack this time!

  • Work really well

    Last year our apple tree was smothered in ants and black fly (which ants farm) and I’m sure this affected the crop. This year I put two tree bands on the trunk and watched the ants try to work a way around them. They failed! No ants or black fly, plus the tree and apples are looking much healthier. I have ordered more bands for next year and highly recommend.
