Like some others on the list, I had to resort to a deer fence to grow anything. After a lot of work, I think I have finally managed to exclude bunnies by running wire rabbit fence along the bottom of the deer fence and filling the gaps around the gates. For the first time in several years, my liliums and Muscari haven't been nibbled as they emerge. That just leaves the effing voles to deal with. Every day, I seem to notice more new holes. Our cats stay indoors unless they are on a leash (coyotes in the neighborhood), so its up to the local snakes and owls to deal with them. They aren't doing enough. Which reminds me: I have some Eucomis bulbs to plant. Do voles eat them? If so, I'll put a lot of permatill in the holes.
