Squirrels!



> WOW!!
> 
> Everyone's plants are so prolific!  I have some double impatiens in
> hanging baskets are blooming profusely.  The rest of my outdoor plants
> are mostly veggies (cucumbers, green beans, tomatoes, bell pepers,
> herbs).  I should explain that the cucumbers are growing alongside our
> house beside the back yard gate.  The green beans are also growing
> alongside the house -- my back yard just doesn't have enough light. 
> I've planted some marigold seeds along with the veggies to offer some
> color and some pest protection.
> 
> There is one pest that is new to me -- squirrels,  I checked out some
> links from the Garden Gate page and bought moth balls and blood meal
> (is this the same as "dried blood?") today.  Neither one say anything
> about HOW to use (how much, how close to plants, etc.) them as
> squirrel deterents.  Any advice would very much appreciated!!
