[CANUFNET] Nailing Trees

I also think that removing the tags would do more damage to the tree than letting them be grown over if they’re already starting to be embedded.

Often projects will be ongoing for years. Tags can be left on until they are absorbed into the tree. If the tag and the records for the tag are always held, then the tag can be used for reference in other monitoring concerns. Use the tag for everything. Size, canopy cover, appraisals, whatever your imagination will drum up. Don't ignore tags just because the original project is completed. Start another project and use the number.

Who pays the arborist to come back after the project is done to remove them? Public projects often go on for years.

Hello,

 

Just wondering, where and who teaches arborists that nailing tags into trees and not removing them is a "best management practice (see photo).
