About the 3 Foot Tree Shelter: The 3 Foot Tree Shelter is UV stabilized for outdoor use, with an anticipated life span of 5-7 years. It is recommended for use in areas that receive six hours of direct sunlight each day. The Tree Shelter has an average diameter of 4 inches. This works great if you some times get a little carried away with the weed eater or to stop cats from using the tree as a scratching post but if you need protection from rabbits you should wrap the tree with something like chicken wire. If you need a more Heavy Duty tree protector see our 24 36 and 48 inch HD Mesh Tree Protectors. These will provide protection from most all critters including weed eaters. ### |
