Too many rainy days lately, I'm holding off on killing my stumps but will report back on the success (think positive).
Meanwhile, spring is kinda sorta almost nearly here? Our neighborhood is getting a lot of baby rabbits running thru the yards. Not usually a problem for me, but annoys my retired neighbor's wife as they eat her garden. Now, we have a new dog that is usually pretty chill but loses her sht anytime she sees a rabbit (part coon dog). So, I have new questions for the group:
Any way to deter rabbits from our yard (ie, mostly benign poison or such) by putting something in the bushes in and around the house? I'm not holding much hope on this one, but figured I'd ask. I don't need dead rabbits laying about, either, so...
Secondly, I'm finding holes in the yard, presumably rabbit holes. What's the best way to fill them? Drop a poison pill down the hole and fill it with dirt? Sounds like a pretty n00b question, but that's because I'm pretty n00b on these things.
Lastly, we're putting up a chain link fence for the backyard to keep the dog contained. I expect she'll chase any rabbits that are dumb enough to come in, but I'd like to keep them out if possible. We're having 'boards' put on the bottom of the fence to fill gaps (property is kinda hilly). Any suggestions or cautions in dealing with the backyard and fence?
