Birds have mostly destroyed our garden. First they ate all our strawberries before they got big enough for us to eat. Then they completely ate or destroyed our biggest, healthiest plant - our brussels sprouts. Now they have dug up most of the seeds and seedlings that I planted recently. They also dug up and ate two of our onions. I'm so mad right now because I put a lot of work into this garden.
I'm going to buy a couple fake snakes and a fake owl to place around the garden, and I'm going to hang a string above it with CDs hanging from it. I read that the movement and flashing lights scare them away.
Hate to hear about the garden. So disappointing. Merry described me as having a meltdown last year when squirrels carried off tomatoes. I wanted to shoot all of them. Hope you can figure out a solution .
ReplyDeleteSorry to read this as I know you have worked hard. We had same problem a few years back with our garden and the owl did the trick!
