OK, so back to original post.
I also have noticed that now that I finally have red tomatoes, it
looks like the squirrels are eating them.
Does anyone have any REAL advice about what to do??
Thanks!

I used a product called the Cat/Dog Stop that I bought from
www.backyard-lifestyle.com
to keep the raccoons and squirrels out of my garden area. It uses a
motion detector and emmits an Ultrasonic sound that frightens most
animals away. Humans can't hear it, and it operates off a 9v battery
for months. It was priced about $40 and well worth every penny.
I hope this helps,

In another thread I took you seriously when you claimed this worthless
device did the job for you personally. I corrected this misinformation,
but was myself naive enough to believe you had at least THOUGHT you'd
experienced some positive effect, since coincidents do happen. But hooboy
was I wrong in assuming you were a regular joe hornswoggled by crooks, as
another individual noted that you are yourself merely a constant spammer
-- making YOU the hornswoggling crook.
Warning to all: Ultrasonic devices have been tested by uninvested parties
at horticultural stations of several universities, & found to be
completely worthless for any purpose whatsoever. See this article, with
two university links within the text:

getting ripe. There's nothing around here that eats squirrels, and we
can't shoot 'em. Is there a way to keep them away from the tomatoes?
