Be careful what you wish for, it just may come
true.
Last year the neighborhood cat population had us at our
wits end. They were using the pumpkin patch as a giant litter box. It was
the most disgusting thing to cope with. Cow manure is fine and dandy, but
catpoop, and urine is down right repulsive!
Well, last fall coyotes found their way to our neck of the
woods, and within weeks the outdoor kittycats were no more.Now the cats are
all gone. Problem solved, we thought.
Now we have a chipmunk population explosion!They are
everywhere! Any hints on how to get rid of the little critters? They think
mothballs are toys.
I used to think they were cute until they dug up and
devoured 100 lily bulbs.Thus far they have not attacked the AG's, but they
love tomatoes only just a little less than the lilies.
any suggestions would be appreciated
