I had one elderly gent who came in EVERY year to clean us out of papermache Owls that he put atop wood posts surrounding his gardens. And I also had a grandmotherly type who had similiar problems until she ordered by mail plastic windsocks that looked like snakes that she had placed in each row a foot to two above the ground she said the sound and sight of them kept the wildlife & birds away but need more for the current year but unfortunately we didn't carry any. <br />Think of these solution they would be quite humane to make your garden safe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-60600837025685069352010-06-11T22:39:35.148-04:002010-06-11T22:39:35.148-04:00*laughs* *non-violent* war.

Their big problem was the deer though eating Grandma's roses and other flowers.Shilohhttp://sunnydreamer.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-66023856679259665722010-06-11T16:09:28.955-04:002010-06-11T16:09:28.955-04:00Between having to take meds that state: STAY OUT O...Between having to take meds that state: STAY OUT OF THE SUN as well as knees that scREAm when knelt upon, I've given up on gardening. Shucks, that even means flowers (really hard to plant in the ground while standing up ... in the dark!). So, I watch the squirrels dash around our backyard and nest in the trees. <br /><br />One thing that DOES grow in my backyard is pachysandra. Supposedly pachysandra is invasive, needs shade, and humus in the soil. H'mm. I've got TONS of the stuff in my backyard -- almost the entire width of my 60' lot, about 3' deep and another 15' of it around my back patio. It stays in its bed, never had to cut/pull it at all. A large chunk of its bed is in the (nearly) full sun and in the 14 years we've lived here, NONE of it has died or gotten brown. I do absolutely NOTHING to it & I doubt if I could kill it if I tried. In the past, if I tried to grow something, it died. Not this stuff. Oh well, at least it's green .......Laurienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-76273835132922203182010-06-11T09:38:09.232-04:002010-06-11T09:38:09.232-04:00We have the same problem since we live in NE PA ju...We have the same problem since we live in NE PA just below Binghamton. We own a Havahart too and transplanted a colony of red squirrels who loved our attic. I love the bunnies, etc. though so Dave just has to fight the good fight without me. As for the rain - I can watch the grass grow but can't mow without getting stuck!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04179027379034179865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-12459684095328424512010-06-11T08:02:09.275-04:002010-06-11T08:02:09.275-04:00I hope you can get a "1" against the bun...I hope you can get a "1" against the bunnies and critters.Druhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978384022143035332noreply@blogger.com
