Its a ribbon that you put in your trench about 6" under the top so if anyone else digs they see the tape before hitting your lines. Seen some in a store once. Seems there is ones for sewer, water, gas, electric, phone.
Never use it myself though and never dug a ditch which had any in it.

When digging out something it sure is nice. Although, it doesn't make much difference to me as I am the probe Nazi.

Never cut a line that was marked yet:whistling2:

i have found it to be very helpful for the electricians when they bury their mains to the panel. have clipped many pieces of tape, but no live wires. Thanks sparky!!!!!!!

Yea, I like warning tape as well, anything to prevent damage is always good!

Put some caution tape above a 3/4" soft pool equip. supply.They still ripped into it with the trencher.
Oh well $$.

No amount of caution tape can deal with a trencher!

 

[Wethead]

Nothing stops the trencher
