It's so disheartening to see a birch tree grow so well, then overnight the main stem is snapped clean off about 2 metres from the top... I melted some lard yesterday and mixed some kero in it. I'm going to smear it all over the birch tree's trunks in the hope it deters them. Interesting recipe :-)) Wonder if it'll work? I'm trying to deter rats round my hen house ATM. I don't want to use poison so it's a watering can of water down each hole once a day. I now know what the expression 'drowned rat' means. I haven't quite managed to drown any yet but they sure hate water in their holes and come up looking very saggy and most definitely 'Not happy Jan!'. ******* things. Yeah, I can't any kind of plastic around the chook pen as the rats eat it... I've had a few rats and mice drown themselves in the water bucket, which is great. I use rat traps with peanut butter, caged off so only rats and mice can access it. |
