Some animals just don’t know when to quit. Dogs, cats, and groundhogs are all among our furry friends who will go low when ruining your organic garden. A dig guard is a bit of fencing that goes into the ground in an L shape. Typically, you cover it with some dirt. When animals run into it, it deters their tunneling plans.
Your garden may be a place of contemplation and joy to you, but to passing wildlife, it looks like dinner. There is no malice in a little rodent heart, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be any happier seeing them dig up all your carefully-tended plants. Thankfully, there are many cruelty-free ways to keep your carrots and flowers safe.
