Lordship 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2009 Might I suggest you make a night of it, rent the Watership Down video and get a good central Otago Pinot, dress yourself up in a Playboy outfit and have some fun. Always wondered what ex Jockeys did when they retire from the saddle :tongue: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

isolt 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2009 Any way of getting bunnies out of my veggie garden, other than shooting them? Are you rural or urban? I guess you can't be too rural or you could shoot them. Try a wire possum trap, but if your veg garden has many rabbit culinary delights, you will be lucky if you can tempt them into a trap. Best protection is a fence of chicken wire. Needs to be all round veg garden and you can attach it to existing fence with ring pliers and staples. Rabbits will soon learn to dig under the fence if your veg garden is full of stuff they really want. To stop this dig your netting into the ground . This is a bit of hard work but it depends how much you value your veges. Had rabbits invade my vege garden once in very isolated farm. Could not believe they ate onions and stuff like that. Have photos taken in Central Otago when there was a serious lack of rain , and the rabbits had chewed through big strainer posts. I don't have the photos on this computer, but can send them to you later if you are interested. Hope this helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
