I have seen these on our trees... will this stick to tree bark? I have 2 dogs, 2 small kids, and wanted to use this in/on the bark in our back yard.

The gel will. The jar contains dry granules. I guess you could try pressing the granules into the gel, but not sure that would be a good idea. One seemed to work best on some ants and the other worked best on others. No type of ant seemed to like both.

The gel will stick, but the granules would have to be manually placed in crevices in the bark. I don't know how effective it will be in such an application. I've only used it in the house and on my deck.

Yes. It will stick. I had the same issue. But I bought additional nail glue because the glue on the nail isn't enough to hold

I would say No. However the bait is thick enough that it would stick to the tree. It will attract the ants especially if you put it on the trail up or down the tree. It works great!

They might stick... but it should work! Try it and see! (Lots of no stick vegetable spray first)

I don't think it works better than spikes, although I haven't used the spikes. I chose this product because of birds landing on my ceiling fans on a covered patio and also for cats cruising the top of the cinderblock wall around my backyard. The product stays is still very sticky 6 months later in the shaded/protected area (on my fan blades). It is sticky enough to stay on the fan blades even when running on high. I haven't had a single bird up there since I applied it to the leading edge where they used to perch. The Tangelfoot goo I put along my block wall lost its stickiness after about 3 months due to sun/rain/dust exposure. I bought some more and reapplied as the cats started using it as their main route again. Since I applied to the wall a couple weeks ago they haven't been seen. It is cheaper than the spikes (except for needing to reapply depending on environment), but also I am in a neighborhood where the spikes would be a bit aggressive since the walls between yards are shared. Hope this helps-

As of 4.10.2014 there has not been an answer that tells me how well these preform on their dogs. If I had used one on my wife we may have been able to avoid our sad divorce, lol. I have a service (Hearing-ear) dog that barks to signal me, but sometimes she does not stop when I want her to. I owe this dog my life and do not want to harm or frigten her, but there are times when I would like to have her stop barking when I want her to.

My mom found that to be the case in her house. all of mine bark and it didnt work at all for them. My mom used it and it really bothered one of her dogs. She has 2 Afghan hounds that are pretty sensitive to everything!

My dog is short-haired and very active, and the nail caps don't seem to bother or impede her in any way! I would imagine they would bother my other dog quite a bit, because he will not tolerate any contact with his paws. That's probably a better indicator of whether the caps would bother your dog.

I have used a full bottle on my 12 Japanese Privets on 2 different occasions, over the past year. The suckers come up with less frequency, especially mid-trunk (I still have suckers on the bottom, but less after every treatment). My privets are still blooming and growing happily.So - I can only attest the answer to this question for Japanese Privets, and when used as directed - in that case, I see no harm to my trees. And MUCH less work for me.

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.

Its very sticky which is perfect for birds...They won't land on the stuff.....You would need to put it where it wouldn't block or obstruct the water from entering your gutters ...Be careful not to get any on your hands...Hard to get off, but works great!

Thank you for your question! This product is designed to be used in the confinements of your home. If your neighbor's dogs are outside, however, the PetSafe Deluxe Outdoor Bark Control may be a better fit for your needs!

No I don't think it would stick as it looks like wicker but if up very close, it is a rubber coated wire. It is a very dark chocolate brown though (darker than implied by the photograph) and blends well with black.

They sell a separate kit called "tree huggers". I use some scraps of carpet. These are to protect the slackline from rough bark as much as to protect the trees.

Yes these would work on a tree. If would be best to attach it to a more flat part of the tree though. I have them attached to studs in our wall in be basement and they hold strong with simple screws from Lowes.

Yes, they will stick to wood but the strips that are packaged with these are not meant for outside use and will come off after getting rained on a few times. There are outdoor strips and hooks out from Command.

Not sure about pines. I have sprayed it around hardwood trees and it does not effect them.
