Groundhog eating my tomatoes - and he just got one of my best ones
(interestingly,he hasn't touched any of the tomatoes I was given for free,
but only the ones I paid for!),

I have some Bitter Apple you spray around the home to keep indoor pets from
chewing. I wonder if that might deter them too???

Any experience with these?

Thanks,
Steve

The only cure for groundhogs is a dog or a 22.

I'm afraid my aim with a 22 would be more of a hazard to me than the GH. Got
a dog, but they're inside dogs, so their being outside can miss the time my
little tomato-eating friend is out there.

Thanks.

Ropel works on what the animal is chewing on so the item needs to be
sprayed and I don't think I would take the chance the the "taste" would
be taken into the plant/fruit of the tomato itself.
