Rabbit Proof Your Garden

Have you had a problem with rabbits eating your special plants, especially roses?

Here is the answer. Your local Lowe’s or Home Depot will have green vinyl fencing. It comes three feet tall and in lengths of about 25-50 feet. I cut the fencing into 18 inch wide strips about 5-6 feet long. Then I wrap this around my rose bushes. Twisty ties are used to secure the fencing in a circular design around the rose bush. The bottom of the fencing is secure to the ground with 6 inch steel staples.

This approach can be used on any small to medium sized plant. Photo number 1 shows the fencing wrapped around one of our young rose bushes.

This works. The rabbit problem has been solved. No rabbit killing or pesticides are needed.
