  4. Just a thought or two – I've had better success with the black 1/2" bird netting – just working with it is a trial. Add another 8" to 10" piece of wood to the frame at the end to make it a upside down U shape and staple the netting on. I'm having a problem with chipmunks – I've got six Big Beef, Red Snapper and Celebrity plants loaded with one pound tomatoes – so far Chipmunks 12 – Angus 1 and with the heat spell they stopped blooming. I have Samantha (Sam) that is Squeaks double.

  12. How about set up tomato+whatever they like to eat stations a bit outside the gardens. If they are full, they will leave your garden alone, or eat much less inside. That is how I used to deal with squirrels and 3 giant fuyu persimmon trees. The birds pretty much stuck to the top but the squirrels would run along a block wall right next to the trees. The trees always had more than enough fruit but of course, the squirrels would take a nibble off of lots of fruit, which was annoying. So I put lots of ripe fruit along that fence and the squirrels rarely bothered climbing the trees. I think in the 10 years I did that, I only caught 1 squirrel in the tree. They used to run along the wall, sit and eat the persimmons I left for them, and run off to their much bigger street trees.

    I kind of have sacrificial plants, so you could try some sacrificial food. They seem to really like the tomatoes, so maybe put a few groupings of those along their route?

    I love your salads and how you process your food. Squeak is really enjoying the summer!

  13. A suggestion: using flat thin metal sheeting, cut it in a triangle & big/wide enough that the edges extends beyond their reach. Attach one to each t-post. So the surface is to slick for them to get a grip, & it is too wide for them to catch the edge to boost themselves up. Don’t know if those metal bird spikes attached around the tops of the post would maybe help to deter them also. Just some thoughts. Do you have any suggestions on keeping squirrels out of. A. Garden?

  21. Well Done you, we don't have racoons here in Australia but we have huge possums who wreck everything, I got up one morning and my lemon, apple, orangea nd carob trees where all shredded such a waste, I like the way you persisted
