Bunny rabbits keep eating outdoor plants

Botany and Cultivation

I’ve been having a bunny rabbit problem the past month. He’s eaten about 6-10 plants.

I’ve tried live traps with lettuce, carrots, and peanut butter.

I’ve also tried granule repellant.

Any first hand experience with outdoor grow and keeping mammals out of my backyard?

I haven’t used it, but there is a sprinkler called the scarecrow that has a motion detector and blasts whatever comes near it with a stream of water.

You got a raccoon problem, use a 5/8 paddle bit deill a hole toe nail 2 nails into the hole and drop a piece of tin foil in the hole. The raccoon will chew its hand off before it will let go, just know its gonna be pissed when you find it there.

Use half an apple as bait in your live trap. Rabbits can’t resist an apple.

I’ve never tried a rabbit snare, only live traps, but I hear they are quite effective if placed on their game trail. Here’s a link showing basic setup. Google has plenty of results for nice stainless snares all ready to rock.

Fence + gsd would probably take care of the rabbits

My gsd’s even like house cats, throw a couple of those in there while your at it. Lol

I have one 6 week old male left if anyone wants him…
