Raccoons here are big-time label chewers - my old seedling pot labels were made from foil baking pan pieces wrapped around stakes, and, even though they should have been permanent, are mostly illegible now due to the tooth marks. My new tags are the Amekron Impress-o-Tag (discontinued?)/Aluma-Boss type tags, for which I drill holes in the pot and hard-wire them in using small gauge aluminum electric fence wire. My old bulb labels were crimped onto the edges of those terra cotta pots, but I'm starting to loop wire through when I repot bulbs so those labels can't get stolen either! Found a rabbit buttprint in one of my 1020 trays today. Time to build a taller table! -joe Duffield, VA, USDA zone 6b but our low this winter was 18°F On Fri, Mar 27, 2020, 7:10 PM Jane McGary <janemcgary@earthlink.net> wrote: > Crows are also very active label pullers. > > But they can't get into my bulb house, and I can, which is good because > it's awfully cold and wet just now otherwise.
