Hope this helped. Would sure like to get them to leave the flowers and garden alone long enought for me to enjoy a little of it. Hi Judy, These cute cotton tails can be very destructive. They most enjoy new growth and tend to shy away from older growth. Use chicken wire fencing around your garden area.
Folks use chicken wire because the holes are small.
Ready to spray rabbit repellent that contains garlic, hot pepper and eggs. It is safe to spray on plants, just be careful handling because of the hot pepper which can be irritating to skin. Wash any vegetables sprayed before eating. Another repellent I found on the web, Liquid Fence, is a safe for the environment spray based on an odor that certain animals like deer and rabbits, find offensive. Fraser Fir, used mostly as a Christmas tree, can be planted as a specimen or along a fence line.
