Urine

Thank you for all of your camera suggestions, I am surprised nobody has my camera, a Canon A70, which I loved until it died. Now I am not loving it so much.
The only thing I didn't like about my camera is that it was bulky, so now I would love a compact, inexpensive digital.

I have a small garden and I have some tomatoes, basil and mint. I usually plant cucumbers but my neighbor usually has so many that he gives me, I could never eat all of mine. Anyway, the rabbits around my yard have taken to eating my tomatoes whether they have ripened or not. This is a terrible problem and the rabbits I usually love seeing around my yard are going to get it if I ever catch them. To make matters worse they usually don't even eat the whole thing! Bastards!
So, I want to get rid of these pests but I don't want to spray the plants with anything because they are organic plants and a organic garden. My sister suggested using coyote urine, which they sell where she works but I couldn't find anything down here. Then I thought about having E pee around the perimeter of my garden. Surely his pee would deter any small animals from coming close to my garden.

This train of thinking has lead me to the conclusion that I need help.

  1. I have a friend who has problems with deer eating her hostas.

    Her husband and 2 sons go out and pee all around them each night before going to bed.

    She hasn't had any problems since they started doing this.

  2. This is why I'm going to try the hanging tomato plants next year. I don't want no pee of any kind near my food. Ick.

  3. Yuck! I think I'd have to just give up and let the animals eat my entire garden instead.
