Re[2]: FW: Pumpkin Eater "PC ONLY" BITMAP

     
     I HAD THAT PROBLEM LAST YEAR ALSO IT ALSO WAS SQUIRRELS 
     THERE ARE NO SQUIRRELS WITHIN A MILE OF MY PATCH THIS YEAR.
     I BOUGHT A LIVE TRAP LAST YEAR AND BROUGHT THEM ALL TO THE WOODS
     WHERE THEY CAN'T GET MY PATCH.

Duncan,
 I had the same problem last year.  Squirrels were the culprits!
Since then I have been spreading "blood meal" around my pumpkins.  The 
drawback is that after every rain you have to reapply.  It's not a 
guarantee but so far so good for me this year!!  I only do this untill the 
pumpkin is basketball size after that the squirrels have no more interest.
     
All the best in growing the big one.  Hope this helps.
