Poisoning, trapping, or killing? wth? You are NOT one with nature are you? The animals have every right to be here. You tempt them and expect them not to want in your garden? Get a dog and in the summer let him sleep outside and run those critters off.
Or, feed the raccoons and deter them from your garden. YOU REALLY DO NOT HAVE TO KILL EVERYTHING!
kill them and eat them yuuuuuuuuuum
No need to kill animals. Just let a dog loose at the garden and feed him everyday. If he can chase a cats will definitely chase raccoons and rabbits to…
Raccoons are pests and are overreproducing.
Let the animals have some food! You are here on Earth to help. Wake up!!!!
Thank you for sharing the information 🙂
These ideas could somehow help you to prevent the unwanted visitors in your garden and this will protect our all time favorite plants. However, learning from your useful tips really taught me a lot!
Fencing is a good method to be applied in gardening and this will probably help you stay away the unwanted guest that might destroy our all time favorite plants. I've learned a lot from you. Thank You!
No need to kill them D;
I think a pet mountain lion would be helpful.
Fencing sounds nice until the raccoons dig up the entire bed and disrupt the soil and roots of your plants. I also have them upend all my plants in pots. Frustrating.
hello there,
I wanted to know does this work for Squirrel and Chipmunks.
Great video I'm sure to try out your great fencing tip….
How do you get to your veggies if you tack that all the way around your raised bed.
I like your Video, May need your idea, Ground hogs got my Tomato plants..ERRR!! …You might like a Video I shot on a baby ground hog attacks my camera…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kQ1P2kMnq4..If you like please think on subbing
I've found great handbook on woodprix website. Good solutions for everyone I think.
Enjoy woodprix woodworking instructions.
I guess we have bionic raccoons in Florida. Spent so much on fencing structure, overlaid with fencing designed to bend outwards, sensor lights were installed … but they laughed at my efforts and the garden has gone by the wayside. Electric fencing or covered gardens are the only way. Raccoons and possums are so bacteria-ridden, and my immunity is low. I can't risk the exposure.
Fencing surrounding the tomato plants and over them do not work. The raccoons just bend the wire and reach in to grab them. I have given up and now purchase tomatoes at the fruit/vegetable market.
Thanks for the great tips. This is the first year I’m having to deal with both raccoons & rabbits. BTW…I’m in southern Louisiana now but I used to live just to the north of you, in SLO County.
Thank you. 🙂
Thanks for the tip. I'm new to gardening, how would I get in and out in order to harvest?
Raccoons made a mess out of my garden only three days since I had my wire netting done…guess I need to buy a motion-sensitive spray
They climb over everything. . . :/
I need to cheat shcool
22 out the window…boom.
