Need help with rabbits!
 
We planted a long bank with nice new Rosea iceplant. I didn't know we had
all these rabbits. Maybe they congregated from the whole neighborhood. They
are eating our new iceplant plugs!

How can I stop the rabbits from devouring our new plants? (Southern
California)

Legally? :)

Covering them until they're large enough to fend probably only practical
option...

Clean and skin rabbits. Quarter and place in slow cooker. Cover with
2 cups tomato sauce, chopped up onion, dash of balsamic vinegar and
worcestire sauce. Add some potatoes and carrots. Cook on low heat for
8 hours. Enjoy.

Hi,
We have that trouble year round living near wilderness park.
We use chicken wire cage to cover any plants they like to eat.
Deer even crashed our picket fence to eat our apple.

If the OP lives in the city that would likely be illegal as in mine. I've
overcome this situation with a 5mm Sheriden 10 pump air rifle that will
pierce a 55 gal drum. Perfect for small rodents and is very accurate and
legal.


theres dried blood, you put it around the odor scares rabbits, also
some chemicals that do the same thing.

ideally plant stuff that rabbits dont like

Borrow a dog, and one of those igloo doghouses, for a few weeks, till the
plants get established. Try to borrow one that is used to living outside on
a tether, and won't whine all night. (Of course, feed it and play with it
and such during the hours the rabbits aren't around. Even working dogs need
social contact.)

Horrify the neighbors!

Buy some chicken wire and make some domes that are 6" bigger than the
plants. While this one will upset the neighbors it will keep you out of all
kinds of trouble that might arise from some of the other methods suggested.

Note running an extension cord to the wire cages will get you right back in
trouble again. -:)

Report back with the results after you use the rifle on yourself.



Get a cat or two from the local humane society

How good is your math?

It is mathematically impossible to have just one rabbit.

Air rifle pellets strategically placed between a bunny's ears is very
effective in discouraging further predation. Sling shots are quiet and
very lethal. Blow guns are fun.

The rabbit problem goes back to the flood when Noah took two of every
creature on board. Unfortunately, he had enough room for rabbits.
