Cheap and Effective Way on How to Keep Bucks from Rubbing Antlers on Fruit Trees - Aluminum Foil

[k-villa]

Every fall, I was trying to come up with an idea to simply wrap around a tree to keep bucks from rubbing their antlers on my fruit trees. I thought something shinny and reflective would be a great when the idea of using aluminum foil popped into my head. This is my third fall of wrapping my fruit trees in a strip of aluminum foil about 3 feet up/antler level, and to date it has been 100% effective.
