Squirrel-proofing large pots
by
Diane
Does anyone have a good, easy, inexpensive way to keep squirrels out of large pots that, for now, contain dirt and veggie seeds? They jump in the pots and dig, not giving the poor seeds a chance to sprout!

I would suggest laying chicken wire over the soil. It works for us in our effort to keep cats from using our garden as their personal bathroom, maybe it will work for the squirrels, too.

Yep the screen method Doug suggest works like a CHARM! The chicken wire holes are a bit too big, they'll get through those.
