Cindi, I can't be absolutetly sure, but the pots were on my patio and I
never saw any birds around them, all I saw was a billion ants, marching in
and out like a parade.  Last year my neighbour grew some zucchini plants and
gave me one, one of the zucchini's went rotten at the end of it and inside
the zucchini was full of ants.  I thought they must have eatten it, so why
not my sweet strawberries.  Dot
