yes, an combination of 50% castor oil and 50% dish detergent, helps to get rid of moles and voles

I believe that this container, if used in conjunction with its companion lid, would most likely do the trick of keeping out any pests. The lid seals pretty tightly to the container. To be totally forthcoming, though, I have not had any experience with keeping out critters, so I can't attest completely to the air tightness of the container in this specific situation.

I would say that the bag is not designed to be sealable against those type of pests. I believe it will do a good job of keeping passive dust out, but against a determined bug, no I think is will not do the job.

No, this is to protect bark on young trees. I use it to keep a weed trimmer r from damaging tender bark if it gets too close. Also, to keep moles and other things near the ground from chewing the bark. I would use the metal cone like protectors especially made for poles that have bird feeders on them. They work great, also, last and last. Amazon sells them I'm sure.

If the netting is kept off of the bushes it will keep the squirrels from reaching the fruit also.

Its not designed to be sprayed around the exterior . Its designed to be sprayed on wood. General insecticides such as talstar are for exterior perimeter treatments.

Yes. Just be careful not to get any on the tree or shrub. It enters the plant through the leaves.

Yes, I had mine in a large raised garden bed, however, do keep in mind that the trap should be covered and not exposed to water. Good luck!

I have these on trees where deer have scraped the trunk and it deterred them from coming back (although sourcing other things in the vicinity but that's a different story). My guess it would work on geese or other birds. We have some plum trees and we use wrap on them because of the shape of the trunk. Haven't had trouble with ants, deer and trees are yielding fine. But I like these cages when possible. I use little ties to keep them shut.

Depends what kind of debri it won't handle a tree branch. It does keep out most bugs it is not very thick.

I don't believe it needs the chemical attractant. I think the reason it should be placed away from human activity is so you don't get bugs on you or in your hair. However, I have one placed under the outside patio. We just don't sit close to it.

This item can be used for pest control. It can also be used inside or outside.

I used it to control tree roots from getting in the garden, so it is buried with 12 inches or more of topsoil. If you use it for keeping weeds out of a rock garden, you would place the fabric on top of the topsoil. It seems to be keeping the tree roots out so far. I'm sure it would keep weeds from coming from below the fabric. But weeds still can grow above the fabric under the right conditions.

There is no bottom piece so that the roots can go deeper into the soil. Think of this as a mini fence around the plants.

Yes, if your trees are small enough to be completely enclosed by net. Close all openings securely. One year, five tanagers found small gaps in my netting seam and enjoyed fine pie cherry dining until I rescued them--and fruit crop.

I used this in a raised bed, some large containers, and around some newly planted plants. It seemed to help keep the critters out of those, but I think it would take a truckload to work around my fence, and eventually the rain washes it away. On my fence I have tried putting a one-foot-wide chicken wire topper to discourage them climbing over, tree tanglefoot spread on the chainlink, spraying with garlic oil, spraying with orange oil, even aluminum foil. I just purchased an electric fence charger and wire from amazon and will be installing that near the top of the fence. Maybe THAT will stop the raccoons.

This product is a total vegitation kill and will harm trees if this soaks into root system. established trees could probably bounce back, however, this prodiccet could be problamatic for small ornamental trees.
