Question

How do you protect tomato plants from rabbits and other wild animals?

Answer 1

If you plant marigolds around the plants, that could help. Rabbits don't like the smell of marigolds. I am not sure what else will discourage other vicious little beasties. : )

Good luck getting rid of your critters!

Answer 2

Cayenne pepper.  It is inexpensive and will not hurt the plants or the animals.  They just won't like it and will leave it alone after they take a few bites or sniffs.  You can get it for about 50 cents at the dollar store.

Answer 3

I put an ole water hose around my entire garden!

We would set and watch the rabbits go around it,

and head into the nieghbors garden! LMAO

It must look like a snake to them, (who knows),

but i worked for us!

good luck

Answer 4

i have the SAME problem but you have to buy a garden fence to put around it....it might be semi-expensive but it's worth it
