Those darn squirrels!

Wow, you just never know. I like getting lots of suggestions and opinions but I also like to research everything before trying

I'm curious though, instead of just spraying garlic, would planting it have the same effect? Or maybe onion grass?

I love squirrels

I leave out nuts and squirrel food for them and I've never seen them eating anyone's plants.

Here's the tricky part......Squirrels, rabbits and deer will often eat fresh baby growth of many plants beyond their normal diet. New growth has little flavor. There are a few attractive, fragrant yet pest repellent plants that work extremely well in gardens, planters, and borders, but they need to be mature plants for full effect and require warmer temperature......
