Default Squirrels Eating My Tomatoes!

I once read an article in Southern Living that if you put red
christmas balls on your tomato plants at the beginning of the season,
the squirrels will try to eat them, will of course fail to eat them,
and then will leave the tomatoes alone when the real things arrive.
It might be worth a try. I don't get enough sun to grow tomatoes, so
I haven't tried it!
