Squirrel Deterrence - by popular demand

Fabulous. It made my day... especially documenting the tomato thief. I've
long wondered just who that was. Certainly here in metro west Boston,
Sudbury, we have opossums. Thanks for the info. Marilyn

I realize that this may be somewhat off topic, but I have had several
requests for the link to the video compilation of what critters are in my
yard after we go to bed. I will rationalize that this is a way to identify
who is helping themselves to your prized bulbs or vegetables.

As back story, it all started when I noticed that something was nibbling off
the plumes of my plume-type celosia and using them as what appeared to be
partially hidden bedding. Then there were the tomatoes being chomped into
at night (I always thought it was squirrels but it turned out to be one or
more opossums which I was able to stop by using 24” high chicken wire).

That said, here is the link to the video. I have not designated it as
“public” but anyone with the link should be able to access it. Be
forewarned. There is violence in one clip as a vole is caught in a trap and
subsequently retrieved by a raccoon! 😊

Enjoy. Stay distanced and healthy,
