Damned squirrels

[rokitman]

I had a great crop of maters coming in and the fucking squirrels stripped my plants clean. Little fuckers are sly and only come out at night so I cant sit and wait and plug them with my pellet gun. Guess I got to put cages up again next year!

It's time to put gardening killbots on the market. Keep your cats indoors.

Squirrels don't get up in the middle of the night to eat tomatoes. They just don't.

Well, I don't have cheese growing out there so maters have to do!

I thought of growing some cheese bushes once but I was worried they'd attract Quebecers.

I have the perfect spot for a dwarf cheddar.

We had a squirrel problem. I build a lounger for my sister and they came out like territorial assholes, bothering her. I thought it was 5, more like 15. 12 are dead so far.

I would say it's bunnies. Bunnies ate three of my tomato plants and now I have a little fence up (which makes it a pain in the ass to weed)

Nope, it's squirrels awrite. I watched one doing recon while another filched a mater..........in daylight this time. Getting brave they are. Time to set some IEDs.

We have more to worry about that crops being eaten --

Squirrels will nibble on tomatoes, just not at night. Woodchucks, chipmunks, and sometimes birds will also take a bite, all in the daytime. If it's happening at night, I'd say raccoon or possum.

Never seen a rabbit eat tomatoes. Deer will sometimes bite the tops off tomato and pepper plants, then decide they don't really like them.

Squirrels are tasty little critters.

[gamgee]

It's probably the neighbors anyway.

The rabbit ate the whole plant. I had tomato cages around the small plants and they were in the middle of the garden, so I say rabbit.

If the outside plants had been eaten, I would have said deer. There was no way a deer could get past all the cages into the middle of the garden to eat three plants.
