  1. My son does that with cling film and celotape and it annoys me so much. You lose so much of it, but worse still is the person that needs it next has to sort out the mess. Aaaaaah. Try wrapping the tree with moss and raffia. We do that if deer get into our trees. Mostly, we put stakes in and wrap mesh around so they cant get to it and the tree heals, but only if the damage isnt too great. Oaks are good at healing though.

  2. Saw the mini chainsaw with Jami when you used to take the mik out of her for getting one and watched you use them all the time now. I got one for my mum this Christmas from seeing you and Jami using them as mum is a keen gardener and thought this would be better that searchers and she says it's the best present ever x

  3. Okay Lester. Dig that tape out of the garbage. You're doing the same thing they did. Tonight, when you're in your recliner watching the tube. The show won't be that good. You can fix that tape. Seriously, patience is the key. You will teach others not to waste things.

  4. You almost need a large Amazon PKG bin down there that closes to put a lot of the pkgs in.
    My dad was very particular about his tools. If you used it you always cleaned and put it away.

  5. Oh wow no hood Lester, Jamie girl! Why didnโ€™t u guys call the police. You never know what would that lady would had done in your property your son or your animals. It doesnโ€™t matter if you have a son that says no trespassing, ppl will still trespass. Iโ€™m so you losing a tree, hope u could save this tree.

  6. Well Lester I'm just telling you you got more patience than I do you sure do if that would be me I would not let anybody use nothing of mine money is too hard to come by to buy stuff back but if you want to put up with that go for it I would not I wouldn't let him borrow nothing no tools until they learned how to put things back or how to stop and fix the duct tape you might not never see this comment that I'm leaving but that's what I would do they would not get nothing else if I had to put it under lock and key like I said stuff is too hard to come by that's all I'm saying you be good to people and they do you that way so that's the way people treat you can't be good to it with that being said God bless you hope you have a good one see you in your next video but I know you never want to read this so that's why I said what I said and I mean what I say I would lock it up

  7. Lester, I rarely comment but watch each of your channels daily I know for the last 5 years. I have to comment about the tape I know exactly how you feel I would have screamed if I had found my tape like that ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚. The first person I saw use a handheld mini chainsaw was Jami and I have wanted one since then, but my family and friends keep discouraging me saying I will hurt myself. Now I am going to show them this video with your recommendation so Thank you so much!!! Happy New Year!

  8. Lester, maybe try spraying your tree bark area with pruning spray. Its black and should be carried by your local hardwares or greenhouses. I've used it on trees that had bark stripped off them by wild animals here. Or maybe contact a local arborist there. I imagine wrapping the tree with the duct tape will stop the animals from nibbling on it more but I'm not 100% sure it will keep bugs out of it. I know some arborists propagate trees by stripping bark off or even whole branches and tightly wrapping the damaged area with a bag filled with moss (I presume the moss helps keep the wounded area damp). So maybe that's an option to try as well. Good luck! ๐Ÿ’œ from near Edmonton Alberta ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

  9. Aw, if the bark has been "ringed" taken off all around the trunk its unlikely to survive. A trees life is in the thin layer under the bark where all nutrients and water etc are brought up from the roots ๐Ÿ™

  10. U GUYS R TO NICE I WOULD HAVE SAID WELL IM SORRY THIS IS PRIVATE PROPERTY. IF I FIND UR PACKAGE IT WILL BE AT USPS. THEN I WOULD HAVE TOLD HER WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH OUR PACKAGES MISSING SO I WILL INFORM THE AUTHORITIES THAT U WERE LOOKING THRU OUR PACKAGES.PERIOD END OF DISCUSSION.

  11. There is a black paint you can paint where the bark is missing and it will act as a band aid. It is specifically for that purpose. The paint will seal it Lester. Then you can get some tin and wrap it around the area exposed to the babies lol. AND Just go buy another roll or two of duct tape Lester. I can't believe you let that little issue upset you. Come on man! You just hurting yourself inside and everyone around you when you get all eat up over the simple things in life. My husband is facing a reoccurrence of Prostate cancer just two years after treatment. It was a very aggressive type. He had a lousy dr that operated on him cutting him from his belly button to pelvic area. TOTALLY unnecessary to butcher someone like that I found out later. On top of that he did not cut all out that he told us he did. ANYWAY I have to drive him all the way to Birmingham Al, for a second opinion for his heart. He may also need aortic valve replacement. I just cannot depend on the doctors here in Pensacola. Many other health issues that I will not address here as I just wanted to put things in perspective for you. I wish duct tape was all that was on my mind, I really do because I am close, very close, to being over loaded. You just keep doin what ya doin until all of a sudden you have a melt down and only then realize you just have too much on your plate with no one to help you. Hubby is a young 81 and I am 72…I THINK!!!! LMBO.

  12. I told my husband that I needed a mini chainsaw. The neighbor sold him a Black and Decker Gater for cheap. Works good except if the trees sappy then itโ€™s a disconnect, run empty to clear the clog, and then complete the job.

  13. Seriously, my Japanese Maple split due to lack of water and Iโ€™ve taken my largest aloe leaf and coated it everyday for 3 days and wrapped it up. It lives, it healed nicely and it never had an infestation. Lester my KIDS used to do that sh#t to my rolls of tape. What a piece of โ€ฆ

  14. Even if they did have a pkg missing, why not knock on your door and ask. And have you to keep your eye out for it, leave a number for to call.
    You have many kids running arnd there to have strangers coming on to property.
    Deff report to police ๐Ÿšจ.
    You can give the duct tape a try on the ๐ŸŽ„.
    Years ago my mother had a huge house plant in 1/2 of a 55 gal plastic barrel. The roots came out of the dirt and split and had droplets of water. I made a joke abt a boo boo and putting a band aid on it. It worked…

  15. Messing with the mail is a federal offense. It might be a misdemeanor if for theft. Local cops probably know it won't be prosecuted. But the feds are another matter.

  16. Use chicken wire to wrap around the tree or get a few rolls of the cloth medical tape. I know it's gonna take a few rolls but it's cloth can absorb rain and the adhesive will not stay on the tree but allows air to the tree. I use it on my crabapple trees when the deer figure a way to get around my chicken wire fence. Have used it for years and my crabapple trees survive.

  17. I would think that duct tape or the tree salves could be eaten off by the donkeys since they are so curious. What about a section of stove pipe/sheet metal could be placed around it with adjustable straps? By using adjustable straps you could prevent tree binding.
