Every night some critter is digging in the pine bark mulch around our
landscape. Yesterday I spread some moth balls around and last night the
activity was the worst I ever had.

Not sure what the animal is, maybe possum or raccoon.

Short of sitting out there after dark with night vision goggles and a 22
rifle and suggestions for keeping the pests away?

Thanks....


So, I have a fox and her pups, an oppossum who digs, a skunk who comes
in now and again, a resident armadillo in one of the brush piles,
snakes, skinks, lizards, birds and rats. What should I do, kill every
living thing so my mulch stays smooth?

Troll.


Disturbing the mulch could cause the earth to fly out of its orbit. Everyone
knows that.


Is that what is making me so dizzy!
