I'm not the brightest crayon in the box...

I know I'm not but how do people keep critters out of their gardens without a fence? I see big vegetable gardens around here with no fences around them.

There is a stinky spray in a blue bottle, I think it's called Deer-Away. It worked pretty well a few years ago when I had a bad case of rabbits. But it stinks, so I only use it as necessary.

Having a cat in the yard helps. My cat won't chase the rabbits, but generally if they see him they won't come around.

Having a hubby with a pellet gun can also be effective.

I have found that no amount of cussin' and swearin' helps. And believe me, I've tried!

Do you think Amish use those sprays? Most of the gardens I see are on the Amish farms around here.

Good clean living maybe?
