they was gettin into mine too but I got a cure fer that and it aint noisy either. get ya a tater peeler and a bar of deodorant soap. irish spring works well. walk around the garden and up and down the rows peeling off shavings and dropin em to the ground. guess it smells bad to em. not sure why it works but it does.

I wish I could. The squirrels are getting ours. We finally have managed to keep the deer out and the blasted squirrels are getting them. The day I delivered the dining table I saw a squirrel rolling a whole tomato in the middle of my yard! One day we saw three tomatoes starting to turn - the next day they were all gone. This is war. My husband is catching them in a have-a-heart trap. The count is up to seven in two weeks. Hopefully we will have some in the next couple of days.

Fried squirrel is excellent with a tomato salad or even just sliced tomatoes with some salt and coarse ground black pepper


Dave(should have had dinner tonight)

Dang, you folks are making my mouth water.
Cherry tomatoes are ripe, but the 'mater sammwich ones are still a few days from ripe. Fenced the garden against McRabbets and Bambis this year, so I have great expectations

So far the squirrels seem content to eat my neighbors apples
