In the process of excavating a foundation hole for a building, the excavators have damaged a couple of oak trees, tearing off pieces of bark. My husband wants to put some kind of sealant on; I thought I remembered reading that sealant shouldn't be used. I found a few websites recommending duct-taping the piece of bark back on but I think those may have been more for younger, thinner-barked trees. What should I do for these trees??
