Fence Post Treatment

Oct 08, 2014 2 Replies

I would like to stake deer protection around Japanese maples with 2x2" stakes, using wire strands running through them.



(At this time of year bucks in the rut like to scrape their felt off on young trees, and doing so denude the small branches.)



My brother in Boulder CO sez this works well.



Is there a decent moisture treatment product, which does not poison the world, which I can use for the 12" which will be in the ground.



I am not fussy - nothing is perfect - just dont want to use penta products.



Thanks for your help!

Mix plastic roof cement half/half with mineral spirits . Paint on heavy coat , let dry . Plant post .

Don't use wood stakes Use PVC pipe.
