The use of natural bamboo trunk protectors offers an effective solution for protecting trees from sunburn damage while ensuring optimal air circulation.
Applying bamboo trunk protectors is an effective method to shield trees, particularly young plantings, from sunburn damage. This damage, often caused by a combination of drought stress and UV radiation, can be severe for trees with thin bark. The death of bark tissue due to sunburn is not always immediately visible, making preventive measures essential.
The primary function of the bamboo trunk protector is to create shade, which helps prevent sunburn damage. An additional advantage of this natural material is that it allows air circulation, effectively dissipating heat. This is especially important when planting young trees, where exposure to sun and high temperatures can lead to bark damage.
The bamboo trunk protectors are best placed loosely around the trunk to maximise both shade and air circulation. This simple and time-efficient method can remain effective for several years in protecting trees from excessive sunlight exposure.
