    only good fencing will prevent them from nibbling! Fencing should go UNDERGROUND by at least 6-8 inches or they will dig under it! Look for YouTube videos for more info

    Hot died peppers like the ones you put on pizza ... I collect the packs that come with delivery pizza and sprinkle them around my plants and it works great ( we have a yard full of rabbits) but they stay out of the garden

    Red pepper flakes are in grocery stores with the spices. You should be able to find a store brand or bulk packaging in whatever Hispanic, Italian, Mexican, Oriental, or other ethnic depts. you have. So if you have more rabbits than pizzas, you always can get your red pepper flakes. Best wishes 😇

    We have "Society Garlic" in flower beds to repel rabbits! It works and has beautiful lavender flowers, too!

    Dried blood, sold in gardening supplies, is both a deterrent to rabbits and a high nitrogen fertilizer. Rabbits & others don't like the smell. It needs to be applied again after rains, but critters get used to it and avoid area it is used repeatedly. I find it especially useful around lettuce and other foods rabbits love early in the season. Once plants get taller, rabbits tend to be less interested anyway.

    Rabbit fencing, made of wire, set below ground.
