I planted some containers of herbs on my front porch and yesterday found 3

no leaves, no nothing left but a hole.

Sounds like squirrels to me.

That's what I was afraid you were going to say. ARGH. I hate those things.
Any ideas on how to prevent? They never touched the herbs last year but the
tricks I used for the tomatoes didn't seem to stop them at all. Now they
have a taste for hot sauce.
