How to keep squirrels from destroying my vegetable garden?
Does anyone have any clues as to how to keep squirrels from destroying my vegetable garden? I just planted more seeds last night, and this morning when I went out to start the water I saw a squirrel sitting right in the middle of my planter box. Is there anything I can do to keep them out until the seeds are up? Thanks!
