That or wet. I have seen the plastic tree ties inside a tree stem and it was going the same colour which must be water getting in i think:001_smile: I know a plantation where the trees keep dying because they used the potato bag ties and they are growing in the stems and they rot at them two places and snap:thumbdown:

If you can see holes higher up the trunk then yes it may well be bats. The bats will live higher and the droppings drop down get wet and run out of small holes as in your picture.

I was cutting firewood on Saturday and mine is on the deck the mice had nests everywhere. The bottom row is just a bit muddy but i have a blade not chain on the processor so . By the time it has dried a few months in the barn and loaded in the trailer it will be alright:biggrin:

It certainly looks tidy but it is the workings that count. Just goes to show you can get let down by Buying on pictures only.
