Most of my neighbors have dogs or have had dogs, and so nearly everyone has a totally enclosed backyard with a wooden fence. The rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, possums, raccoons and voles are EVERYWHERE. The rabbits probably do the most damage...as they wreak havoc to gardens and dig burrows in the grass and under the fences. We originally thought our home with a fenced in yard would be the perfect environment for our yorkie and now we see all the hidden dangers that are lurking everywhere.
Anyone have any tips on how to keep wildlife out of our backyard? Someone mentioned spraying coyote urine (once again a disgusting thought) around the perimeter of our property to keep everyone at bay...but that my keep us inside as well. |
My one Yorkie is obsessed too.
The problem with any type of liquid deterrent is that it has to be reapplied frequently. It is a hassle and expensive, and none of them are one hundred percent effective. We do it to fight voles, moles, and gophers. Haven't tried anything yet for rabbits.
