B****y Rabbits (1 Viewer)

[Munchie]

Damn things have stripped the bark off two standard mini trees in our garden. Does this mean they will die?

No! Rabbits can eat owt

Shouldn't think so - rabbits are always eating bark from young trees without killing themselves.

Trees will die eventually but just think of the succulent rabbit pies you can have - you just have to catch them

Frrom reading that, I did a Google search for "Tree sealing products" and limited it to UK pages. There seem to be lots available.

May be a bit late but when we had a problem with squirrels stripping bark from Japanese Maples a few years ago I cut a section of old hose pipe long enough to cover the trunk, slit it and tied it round the trunk. Only works with very small trees/shrubs I suppose because of the hose diameter.

Ken, you could uproot the two trees, whittle one into a bow and the other into an arrow and shoot the bloody things if they come back for more....

at least you only have bunnies....our last tree muncher was a deer and it ate the whole sapling.

If you coat the stripped part of the tree with a mixture of Honey & Panut butter, it will attract the rabbits again & you should be able to get at least a couiple with a shotgun on full choke

Seiously - My mate had to fit wire mesh guards to a height of 2 ft around the saplings in his orchard to prevent the same thing from rabbits.

When planting trees , shrubs etc always use tree guards either plastic spirals or make your own from wire netting.
