Oh i know what you mean......and trust me we do the squirrels no harm.You should hear them running thru the eves at 4 in the morning.These have to be families that have been here for years.Talk about being bold they come with suit cases and leave in the Spring.
Rose:
Reason i don't want squirrels around my home is they have become way to tame.They come on the porch tore up my wicker chair cushion for nesting.
That's not to say what only god knows thats in the eve of our house.My 6 yr old plays on the porch weather permitting and i don't need to have her get bit.I don't starve them nor do i feed them i
don't want them moving in as they have.They can be very destructive.
Rose:
Squirrles oh please we have a family that lives in the eves of our house every year.They move out in the Spring.We had them removed and taken away but they came back every year,so we gave up .
Depending on where you live its garlic time........I planted 12 cloves and hoping i get some good sized bulbs.Garlic comes up in the Spring but not ready till late August early September.
I found taking all the hair off my brushes and putting it in netting,place it around your flower garden or veggies.The critters smell human and stay away
Your right bw my husband put holes all around the metal we have our compost in for the air to circulate.I like making a tea from the compost and watering my garden with that.
I have a corner in my yard that i have a large piece of heavy metal around it.My husband turns it with a big pitch fork and he pours pepsi on it to get it cooking.Than he covers it with a metal covering.I also use manure when our garden is first tilled.

In the beginning of this board i told about blueberries.My bush was doing nothing.I looked it up to see what i could do and found it needs acidic soil.Ahhhhhhhhh coffee grounds to the resue.lol....To my surprise it picked right up and bore some fruit this year.
So now i give it a drink of coffee once a week.
Garlic can be very hardy, this year i'm doing mine in containers.It really does help the garden since you don't harvest it till fall.Marigolds are great around the garden.
