Hello there,

My mother has some flowers in pots and the squirrels love to dig in them.
We've put cayenne pepper on the soil but that doesn't seem to work.
Lowe's Hardware carries a product called "Deer Off" Ready to Spray Deer
Off *Deer, Rabbit & Squirrel Repellent.
I was wondering if that would work. *I tried a water scarecrow(motion
detection) but that got everything wet that came into the area including
people.

Thanks,
Elliot

Maybe an ultrasonic? *I have a battery operated one, and it sure gets the
dog's attention. *I carry it when doing real estate work, and it works great
on some dogs, and others either can't hear it or doesn't have any effect.
I'm sure they make them motion sensitive.

A fool shows his annoyance at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult..

You might try moth balls. I put them in newly seeded areas where my
(or the neighbor's)
cat loves to dig. Keeps them off. Also hung moth balls over the cat
door to keep the
possums and 'coons out. Don't put too close to plants.
