HEY slow motto, I do know what works squirrels hates this product badly
mothballs this works great, less bothersome to your garden... bugs do not like these even cats and dogs yes it stinks, but works
cost ya only a dollar for the problem ya have to be settled. we got good mustard collards cuz rabbits and all didnt bother em all
