I have trees that have holes, that I think should be repaired. I believe limbs initially occupied the areas where the holes are. Is there a standard method that I can use. Or is this something I should not be concerned with. Thanks

Greetings Carl:
Don't feel compelled to fill-in these holes as you'll likely just complicate the situation. Let the tree naturally compartmentalize the wound if it can.
