My wife has this Topsy Turvy Tomato Tree and she has tomatoes & peppers on the vines. There's a cucumber plant on the back side in bloom. Hal

They're covering strawberry plants. Something been digging them out. I thought it might be a skunk. Whatever it is they don't eat the plant. Hal
 
Wish I had enough. I have a rabbit or woodchuck that whacked half a dozen of mine. Rest seem OK so far.

I honestly have never had many wildlife problems until this year. I'm skeptical anything would be attracted to a trap with so much good food around. I hate spending money and time to properly fence it, 'specially since it's a pain to work around a fence.
 
I am having a problem with deer my grandfather used soap and it did well I used it and the deer walked over the soap shavings that night to eat my peas. I was told to put out moth balls and so far so good they left it alone last night we will see in time if it continues to work.
 
As someone once said; If my garden diddnt grow i'd just be some nutcase who randomly drops a three bottom plow in his yard :)
 
You may need to put up an electricfied fence to zap them a few times. My former co-worker has the same problem with deer eating his tomato plants. They must be pretty hungry to eat tomato vines. I have most of my vines on cages and so far no problem. Hal
 
I have one of those "Have-a Heart traps and I've lost count of how many groundhogs I've caught.
I took most of them into where I worked on a military base. A black civilian guard saw the trap with the groundhog and ask what I was going to do with it. I said I would let it loose unless you want it. He wanted it and said he ate them. They brought coyotes in and turned them loose and they lowered the groundhog population in a short time. I use to shoot them until they built homes behind me. I had one in my stacked fire wood and he would situp and look around. I whistled to him and he stoodup and I pop him. It sure did smell around there for awhile. Hal
 
my grandfather used to have a problem with deer in his garden until he was told to use human hair.

all he ever told me about it was that he just spread the hair out around the plants. in fact while sitting on the back porch one night he saw a little doe walk in to his garden and stick its nose to the ground and not even turn around just back strait out of the garden
