In mid-May, we begin removing the bands from trees, and this process continues until early June. If we put bands on your trees in the fall, we will remove them for free during the spring. There is no need for you to confirm the removal process unless you just want to say hello :)
"The best way you can control adult cankerworms is to band your trees before larval cankerworms become a problem. Banding your trees with Tanglefoot is an environmentally acceptable way to keep adult cankerworms from climbing the tree to lay eggs. [...] Encourage your neighbours to also band their trees because cankerworms can travel on their silken threads as larvae."

Schmidt Tree Banding is Winnipeg's largest tree banding company. Founded in 2003, we take great pride in our meticulous work and exceptional customer service.
We are the only service in the city using authentic tree banding supplies. Using non-authentic supplies makes tree banding useless.

We band ash, oak, elm, and fruit trees in the fall with authentic tree banding supplies. It is essential to take bands off in the spring, so we remove them for free.
Band removal: Mid-May until early June.
