Thanks for the idea, John. I was not really aware of the toxic-to-
kids (no prejudice to number of legs) issue in the moth balls. I'll
pick up the few I scattered loose tomorrow morning! We have tenants
here with grandchildren......Oy weh! Our browse is well started on
growth, so we should be through with the deer and rabbits shearing
things off neater than a lawnmower.
