Fruit trees can be protected from pests using a simple and inexpensive solution, costing around 15 lei. Properly applied around the trunk, this barrier prevents insects from reaching the crown and damaging the bark, buds, or next season's harvest. While some gardeners use aluminum foil, its effectiveness is limited. Experts recommend using specialized adhesive bands designed for specific pests. These bands can significantly reduce the number of insects that reach the tree's crown. Regular checks and maintenance of the protective measures are essential to ensure their effectiveness and prevent moisture accumulation that could harm the bark. Overall, while aluminum foil is a low-cost option, specialized bands are more effective for pest control.
