Are you having a “bad hare day”? What a drag it is to see your chard or cabbage coming up, only to be chomped on by bunnies (or other critters)! Here’s what to do…
To stop rabbits from enjoying a salad in your garden, wet down the leaves of your vegetable plants and sprinkle ground cayenne pepper on them. Repeat after every rain shower…and remember to wash your produce well before eating (but you were going to do that anyway).
To protect your seedlings, sprinkle baby powder on them. Rabbits hate the smell of talcum powder. Or sprinkle human hair all around where your plants are just coming up. Remember to ask your beautician to save the clippings when you (or a family member) get a trim.
