Your plants may be the main attraction to a hungry passing fawn, but you can take steps to reduce that attraction by keeping things well-tended. Cleaning up fallen fruits and vegetables, for instance, reduces the available food. You can reuse the lost foodstuffs as compost to help your future growing efforts.
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.
