🦌 THE RUT IS NEAR — PROTECT YOUR TREES! 🌳
As we head toward fall, deer activity is going to pick up. During the rut, bucks rub their antlers against young trees, and it doesn’t take long for them to strip bark and seriously damage—or even kill—a tree.
Don’t wait until you see the damage.
A little protection now can save a tree you’ve spent years growing.
🌳 Protect young and newly planted trees
🦌 Use trunk guards or sturdy fencing to keep bucks away
🍂 Get protection in place before rut activity ramps up
🔎 Check existing guards to make sure they’re secure and not rubbing the trunk
Stop by Brady’s Garden & Spa Center and we’ll help you figure out the best way to protect your trees this fall.
The rut is near. Protect those trees before the bucks turn them into scratching posts! 😂🦌🌳
