Working towards a sustainable and healthy lifestyle on my own chunk of land. Learning to grow and prepare healthy food for ourselves, our friends, and our family in London Ontario, Canada.
Made of nothing but a layer of newspaper and a few sticks to keep it from blowing away, the squirrel shield seems to be holding! It's been at least 18 hours now and no signs of trouble. Knock on wood but I think this just might work!
Ha ha. My worse critter problem is my dog. He loves the blood and bone meal and the compost. I have to sprinkle cajun pepper around so he won't dig up my beds. But not in the kids gardens!!

ReplyDeleteNo pepper in the kids' garden because it would bother them? or because the dog doesn't dig there?
DeleteCause my kids are pretty enthusiastic gardeners and often garden directly with their hands.
DeleteAh... hot peppers in the eyes/mouth = bad
