we got dear/rabbit/and wild hogs to deal with down here and the only thing that will get rid of them all was tossin dog hair all around the gardens. it really works way better than i thought it would when i was told by my friends granddad. i figured he was tellin us to do something that would get our plants eatin, so we tried it in 2 gardens that get munched on alot. it really did work. nothing messed with that crop at all. you have to toss it out there every few weeks, but it doesnt take much to cover a garden with the smell of dog.
ive been doing this every crop for 12 years now. my wife digs the lil poofy dogs, and they shed like a mo/fo. its a win win,,, i get the hair, and i get the credit for being a sweet heart for brushing her dogs for her.
P.S.
never underestimate the power of brownie points! lol
