Some people have had success planting garlic near low-lying plants. Some even chop garlic and spread near the problem areas. Who knows? Anything is worth a try.
ReplyDeletedo bunnies get in under the fence?
ReplyDeleteNot sure how the get in, but their ninja-style moves allow for them to either sneak under or through some tight spaces. Some have placed boards along the outer fence where we know the dig in. I strongly suggest local fencing around the individual plots. I will be putting up an additional fence around some low-lying plants within my plot. Pests and rodents love our garden.
