dang squirrels!

they're already foraging around my yard, and it's not even bulb season! looks like i'll ahve to buy chicken wire. Does anyone know where i can buy it? I've been looking at local hardware stores and i haven't seen any, just plastic netting.

thanks.

Farm supply stores will have it. I also see it at Lowe's and Home Depot.

I have a larger problem with my emerging bulbs this spring. Kangaroos are coming into the garden at night to graze and have developed a fondness for the fresh foliage of some of the bulbs. They love Sparaxis bulbifera, but we have those in plenty, but they have also taken a Lachenalia that we are growing for the first time, now gone without trace!

small problem for a small lot :)

kangaroos? how do you deal with something like that????

Well they mostly only graze on the grass, so they are usually not a problem. I have put guards around a few of my most treasures bulbs once I realised they were about.

a squirrel to us is a kangaroo to the aussie's. :-) gotta love it

I would rather deal with a squirrels then a kangaroos any day,,, but I would love to see one in Michigan !!!
