Abstract
A tree band trap includes a formfitting substance engaging and extending around the trunk's outer circumference, a stretchable strip mounted to the trunk and having a length extending in a longitudinal direction and around the formfitting substance's outer circumference, and a deterring agent extending around the stretchable strip's outer circumference for deterring insects from traversing the stretchable strip. The stretchable strip is operative so that, after the stretchable strip is mounted to the trunk, the stretchable strip is under tension in the longitudinal direction as a result of the stretchable strip having been stretched, and the tension of the stretchable strip forces the formfitting substance against the trunk's outer circumference. A marginal portion of the stretchable strip extends around the trunk's outer circumference at a position that is above and/or below the formfitting substance. A deflector is provided for deflecting falling leaves away from the deterring agent.
