Green peaches and green tomatoes verified in NC. I hate squirrels!!
I'm with you, CZ! I detest squirrels without any reservation. They're nothing better than fluffy tree rats, IMO! At least they haven't messed with my passionfruit so far.
Guess I'm gonna hafta set out for 'em a bowl of some of the toasted wheatgerm mixed half and half with concrete powder and a drop of anise oil. Squirrels and rats love the stuff. I put a bowl of water nearby cuz they're thristy after eating the dry mix. The water helps form an intractable BM that does them in.
Best of all, since the mix is not poisonous I don't have to worry about the neighbors' cat or dog, etc. catching an affected rodent and eating it —such as with DeCon! The best thing about my mix is that rodents that eat it
never develop any resistance to it as with Warfarin-based poisons.
OK — HTH
