Pruning Sealers are designed to create a physical, waterproof barrier over large cuts made during tree removal or heavy pruning. This barrier prevents moisture loss, discourages wood-boring insects from entering the wound, and keeps common disease spores and fungi from settling into the vulnerable, freshly exposed wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge Wounds:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sealing large cuts (usually over 1.5 inches in diameter) made when removing limbs from shade trees or ornamentals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVulnerable Trees: \u003c\/strong\u003eProtecting thin-barked trees, such as Aspens or Birch, from sun scald, borers, and disease.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Actionable Steps:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Apply: \u003c\/strong\u003eApply a thin, uniform layer of the liquid or aerosol product only to the exposed wood surface immediately after making the cut.
