I'll let you know how they work in the fall. All I can say so far is that (1) they're easy to put on. (2) they seem to work better on vertical layers than horizontal branches, because of the water reservoirs, and (3) the sharp plastic on the lid can seriously gouge sensitive bark as on young (second-year) maple or beech. Best regards, Carl __________________ In love with trees
