With 4 ... soon to be 5 ... canine kids, 8 feline kids,  and all sorts of 
wild carnivores in the surrounding woods (coyote, fox, timberwolf, black 
bear, various weasel relatives, raccoon, skunk, etc.), I wouldn't dare 
use anything with a bone or blood scent in my garden!  I prefer to dig my 
irises on my own timetable.  ;-)
