Rabbit bait
rabbits love pansies, basil, sage, herbs, bananas.......
at least our pet rabbits do.....I know the wild rabbits seem to love my herbs and pansies as well. what do you do with the rabbit once you trap it? Take it to another location?? hth Tammy -- The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom.

I've had great succss on squirrels and chipmunks with peanut butter but I didn't think of using it for rabbits. Apples seem like a good suggestion.

Take it to another location?? Yes. A couple of years ago when we had a squirrel plague I got tired of paying for the gas it took to relocate the squirrels. Research shows squirrels need to be moved up to 15 miles or they will likely return. Hopefully rabbits are a bit less likely to return. Our house is on the edge of a forest/agricultural area so there are plenty of new places for country living. :-)) -- Don Dickson |

DON'T put out potato peelings. They are toxic to rabbits. So are citrus
peels. Just general fyi...... blessings, Tammy -- The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom.
