Last year, late May, I was already experiencing problems with primarily coons eating developing peaches out of the peach trees. The first few days of June, I trapped ten coons and shot three or four more around a feeder. I had a dozen traps out. After the initial catches, I cut that back to...

When I planted austrian winter peas at home, deer never let them get big enough to even see them.

Yes, mixed field of austrian winter peas and radish with zero use
