Need critter proof garden ideas!

I was waiting to suck somebody into asking...

That's a codamindi, pretty scary when you get a bunch of them swinging thru the trees, probably pretty harmless they haven't been a problem although I've seen them just 1/2 mile up the canyon.

 

You could catch and sell those for pets?

 

One down.

 

Heck yes I've seen de-sented skunks as pets.

 

Had both descented Skunk and Racoon as pets/pest as a kid.

 

I wonder if they taste like possum or more like rat....

 

Chicken.

 

Spotted Owl

 

Hosers....I was 1/2 serious....that tail is begging to be stewed.

 

I have definitely seen those for sale as pets!

 

When you work your way up to this size trap then you know something wants what you have.

The clump in the middle of the little grassy area by the cabin that I thought was all brush looks to actually be a small hill. Hoping so- I could put my garden up there.

 

I've always just tied cheap aluminum pie plates to a stake and let them dangle about a foot below the top of the stake about two feet from the ground. Let em swing in the breeze and beat and bang on the stake. Seems to have kept out about everything. I dunno if it's the noise or the movement or both that keeps the critters out.
