Abstract

See full text

An insect barrier strip that prevents targeted insects from climbing up a targeted tree. The insect barrier strip may contain insecticides that the targeted insects will encounter and kill. The insect barrier strip may be made of material(s) with a low coefficient of friction to provide a difficult surface for insects to traverse, that are flexible/expandable to enable the insect barrier strip to be wrapped around a tree trunk and expand over time as the trunk grows, are chemical resistant so insecticides will not degrade, and are capable of withstanding a wide range of environmental conditions. The insect barrier strip may include an overhang to make it more difficult for the targeted insects to get past. The insect barrier strip may include a trough that the insecticide can be located in or clips that insecticide can be secured to. A wick can be utilized to hold the insecticide.
