The Critter came back

Critters have been digging in my garden again. I wasn't sure if it was cats or not so I set up my trail cam. . Last month, I poured Pine sol around my garden and the digging stopped. I guess it wore off. Last night I poured Pine sol around the garden again and set up my trail cam. The cat came back but didnt do any digging
I guess the Pine sol discouraged him.

BAD kitty! At least s/he didn't dig any more....!

bad cat

I've got a couple of rabbits hanging around my SFG boxes. They get right up to the chicken wire cages and peer inside expecting to see something yummy. Too bad for them that the only thing they see is a layer of leaves (mulch). There are tulip shoots as well as (hopefully) leeks and garlic under the leaves which I am about to remove.

Handsome cat. At least now you know. You have hoops, cover the lower portion with some kind of barrier material.

Thats what I did when they first started digging. I wrapped the beds with construction fencing. Guess I'll have to put it back up for awhile.

Saturday evening, I set my trap for a ground hog I saw near my garden. Yesterday morning, I had a large Raccoon in my trap and relocated him/her about 6 miles from my house then reset my trap last evening and put my trail camera out.

This morning I checked my camera and found I had another Raccoon prowling around. This one is much bigger than the one I caught.
