The great side effect of that was that it did help some I think with the rabbit situation. I went to my local farm supply and they said you can not buy it anymore because of mad cow disease. Maybe I'll shoot a couple rabbits and just let them bleed all over the garden : )the canned quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08161381921874364319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-24713043082765165902012-06-19T11:48:34.485-05:002012-06-19T11:48:34.485-05:00I read (but I can't tell you where) that blood...I read (but I can't tell you where) that blood sprinkled in your garden will discourage rabbits. It might help with deer as well. I would just use blood out of meat packages and see if it helps.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09398802177166008567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-73983426861276812052012-06-19T10:17:18.276-05:002012-06-19T10:17:18.276-05:00I think I would be preparing my freezer for severa...I think I would be preparing my freezer for several fresh kills this summer!Sandy Livesayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183449816586125720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-82314063165746911762012-06-19T08:03:13.435-05:002012-06-19T08:03:13.435-05:00While you have deer and rabbits, we have mice and ...While you have deer and rabbits, we have mice and birds that love to feed on our crops. Mice love our corn and the birds will often beat us to the fruits. Such is farm life with the wild creatures.jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05732358856419035775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-12445281042812897862012-06-19T07:11:17.887-05:002012-06-19T07:11:17.887-05:00Absolutely, we're scoping out our little pea b...Absolutely, we're scoping out our little pea biter! We don't have a dog and even if I did, we have so many coyotes that it wouldn't last the night chained up. Our fishing line worked wonders until I had to put up chicken wire for the skunk. Now the deer see it and hop the line so I'll have to take down the wire to keep deer out-not sure which choice I'll make. We sprinkled some citronella scented pellets around which worked until the big rainstorm. I thought about planting a feed bed elsewhere for them but my husband thought it might just attract more.Kathy Felsted Usherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10471923897561942341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-56750665712190833842012-06-19T06:31:20.736-05:002012-06-19T06:31:20.736-05:00I have noticed ours are moving closer too.
