Arbrex Seal & Heal

Purchased this as I have a flaming flamingo tree where part of the stalk of the tree had become damaged and was being attacked by ants. Put a coating of this on quite thickly over the damaged part and more lightly over the remainder. Dried fully in a couple of days and no more ants on the attack.

Saved me a trip to shop. Ordered with multiple gardening products.

Always used Arbrex to seal big cuts - does what it says with no drama.

This works.I have a very sorry looking pyracantha which was storm damaged and had its main bough split down the middle. Pruning was not an option.I set to with wide zip ties, a clean toothbrush to clean the wounded plant, and then started slathering this all over the split. Too much is just enough.20 minutes later the bush was repaired with lots of visible zip ties and this gunge oozing from the split.Fast forward 4 weeks and the damaged plant is green with new growth and looking very healthy again, just with a garnish of zip ties keeping it stable. And no little creatures have gone near the sticky stuff at all.Great value, easy to use, appears insect proof, and the shrub is very happy too.Recommended.NB// use disposable gloves. This stuff is STICKY and will likely stain anything it contacts, including patios, skin, hair, clothes, carpets, spectacles, furniture, cats, small humans. Etc.

I applied the sealer using a small disposable brush after pouring some into a plastic yogurt pot as suggested and it was an easy quick job to fill a bark wound and a small fissure on a small tree. The sealer stayed liquid for several days in the pot so I was able to layer it on over a couple of days. Settled into the small fissure with no problem.

Used a few years ago and found this to paint our young plum tree spring pruning points for shaping it etc to reduce risk of Silver Leaf fungus...no problems from ordering to delivery in the timescale advised with regular update info..initially 4* but happy with my purchase..

Good price compared to similar products and a brand I've used for many planty things in the house and garden prior. I've never used this product before and was doing to major maintenance work on our cherry tree, which I desperately wanted to survive. This product sealed all the cuts neatly and set months ago into a solid cap which is now protecting from pests and diseases. Easy to apply though it can be a bit runny when warm so wear gloves. Still most of the bottle remaining and it's worked so well I'm planning on doing many other trees and many woody shrubs to keep them tame!

I bought this because the tree that I trimmed was dripping sap, I tried to stop it by various methods including scorching, none worked and neither did thus product, it was extremely hard to actually squeeze the container to get any out it was like putty, so thick, a waste of money from my point of view
