d**n rabbits are runing my flowers!?

Question

I put black ground pepper and then I put plastic grocery shopping bags over all my flowers than staked them off so the bags would stay in place. Will this help to keep those over grown rats away from my flowers for the night?

Answer 1

The best way to get rid of rabbits is a BB gun. Just give them a sting on the butt and they won't be back.

Answer 2

Not really :o( Plus you are depriving them of oxygen and you could spread mildew and leaf bacteria. I am an organic gardner and I use ( i know this is weird) human hair, after I have my hair trimmed, or I trim my husbands hair I sprinkle it in the garden. Rabbits will not come near if they smell the human scent. You can also place an old shirt in the garden on a stake at night. Another method is planting marigolds around the garden. Rabbits and other garden loving animals hate the smell! Hope all this works!

Answer 3

Try blood meal.  Not only will this act as a deterrent to critters (because they are threatened by the scent of blood) but it also acts as a fertilizer for your flowers.
