You mentioned how to get rid of a lot of critters, but how can you get rid of rats? I have a small dog, so I have to be careful. I liked your ideas of a rubber snake or things that are not poisonous.
Loved your article. Would like some additional insight, if possible: I have a number of wild rabbits who have turned my lawn — marathon grass — into their personal salad bowl.
Besides the toy snakes you recommend, do you have any other helpful hints geared to rabbit control?
We have a Fuyu persimmon tree and an orange tree in our yard. The last couple of years the squirrels have gotten to most of the fruit before we have.
They jump to the trees from the garage or the fence. They are absolutely brazen about it. One even threw a half-eaten persimmon from the garage roof and hit me on the shoulder.
What do you recommend to stop the squirrels? We don't want to poison or kill them.
I was wondering if you have any sssssolutions to rid a pesky cat from using my yard as a litter box. I have tried various types of pepper without result.
