Image via WikipediaI had a question from a new reader.

Karen, desperate to save her flowers asks how to deal with hungry rabbits that find her flowers quite tasty.

Nothing is more disheartening that to look at how well your flowers are doing just before you go to bed and then wake up to find that rabbits have chewed up everything and stripped the bark from most of your shrubs before leaving.

We haven’t run into to this yet as we live in the middle of our city, but if we see deer here every once in a while it won’t surprise me to see a few bunnies around.

I will give you a couple of cheap alternatives to rabbit repellents which tend to be expensive.

1. Ammonia sprayed around the perimeter at dusk will keep them away.

2. Make a pepper spray using cayenne pepper and water. I used the same thing to get my son’s dog to stop digging up the yard.

You may have to do this periodically as the old rabbits may learn to stay away but the newest once still need to be taught a lesson.
