Answer 2

Not sure what you are asking about.  Maybe some details.

Answer 3

It is used as a measuring tape for the diameter of the tree. This can help determine age is price tag for loggers.

Answer 4

I am not sure what you are asking but I put tree tape on my fruit bearing trees when they are young to prevent the critters(mice and others) from chewing on the bark and killing the trees.

Tape can also help prevent damage to the bark by a lawn mower or weed whip.
