I have bark damage on some young trees (apple and landscaping) done presumably by a buck rubbing his antlers.  None of the trees were completely girdled, but some lost lots of bark.  Should I be applying any specific tree dressings etc. to protect and save these trees (which were doing well otherwise).

 

thanks for your suggestions
