For the past three years, I have used one HAV-A-HART trap placed
strategically between my orchids and tomato plants. It works.
When I trap a squirrel, I take it LIVE to a cemetery where I release it.
Many nut trees.
I also have a terrier who often sleeps near the trap. Good
deterrent.
Before the trap, I had two greyhounds who kept the yard vermin free for
years. I had neither squirrels nor rabbits!
My current problem? Large birds tipping the bromeliads in pursuit of
water.
A greenhouse would be nice......
Steve, how many [OGD] forum members does it take to rid the outdoor orchid
growing area of vermin? I shudder to think......
