Re: Backyard Critters doing damage
My neighbors would definitely report me if I tried shooting the rabbits with an air gun, but something needs to be done. My favorite lilies are eaten before they get 8 inches tall. Forget my baptisias; they are caviar to bunnies. Same with my brugs. So far the only thing that seems to work is human hair brought from the ladies at the hair salon. Keeps them away so far, but it brings the flies in droves. I see them in every size, so I know they're breeding in my backyard, which is enclosed with a wooden fence. I'd love it if they were mowed. Havahart traps didn't work at all. Hate the little buggers.

"If by a liberal, they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind; someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions; someone who cares about the welfare of the people, their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, their civil liberties; someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicion that grips us; that is what they meant by a liberal, I am proud to be a liberal."
