This time of year people all over the country start looking forward to this year’s garden. But gardeners are not the only ones excited about seeing new sprouts in fresh soil. The wild critters are excited too! Newly sprouting seedlings are like an all-you-can-
Many gardeners look to pesticide repellents to protect their gardens, but Johnson warns that careful consideration should be taken before using these powerful pesticides. “PredatorPee is as all natural as a product can get. It is not a pesticidal repellent, it is simple “pee” that occurs in the wild every day. When you choose to use a pesticide type repellent, you are adding something to the soil that has never been there before. Think about that carefully before you do it.”
Even fences are not enough says Johnson. “Did you know that a deer can jump a 6 foot fence from a standing start? But, to do it they have to be very close to the fence. If you hang some coyote urine-filled dispensers every ten feet or so on the fence, deer will never get close enough to the fence for a jump.”
Johnson also suggests mixing some bobcat urine in the soil around your plantings, it adds some urea and will also deter the moles and voles from eating your seeds. For more information about predator urines, visit www.predatorpee.com.
