Kootenay Covers Overview

How Kootenay Covers Work

Place the cover on your tree after pollination but before pests arrive in spring. The fine mesh prevents insects from laying eggs on your young fruit, keeping caterpillars and maggots away. Simply lift the cover at harvest time to enjoy a pest-free crop.

Do I need to prepare my trees?

You prune the tree for use with the cover the same way you would prune it if you were going to spray. You want to be able to reach the fruit safely and easily. Depending on the type and variety of tree, and your past pruning practices, your tree may need just a little pruning or maybe a lot. If your tree(s) has not been pruned for a very long time you may need to give it a major pruning. Bringing an older unmanaged tree back into production can be very much worth the effort.

How to Install Fruit Tree Covers

Gather a few friends and use four poles to lift the cover over the top of the tree. Gently lower the cover to rest over the tree. Secure the bottom of the cover around the trunk by tying it snugly with a piece of rope. When it's time to harvest, simply open the bottom of the cover and start picking your fruit!

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAYS

I have used the covers two years. I highly recommend them. They really work well. I used them on Granny Smith apples and Stella Cherries.

Just wanted to let you know that the bag worked perfectly! First crop in 5 years without worms - we are very excited and very grateful. Thanks!

Robin N.

We had purchased your covering last year and I couldn't believe what incredible cherries we had. Of course it was a wonderful year for all fruit but the main thing was NO worms in our cherries. You would not believe the excitement in my family and anyone that had the opportunity to try them had, so tasty. I am really looking forward to this year's crop again.
