The miserable beasts ate all of my carrots to the ground and ate every bean
off my bean plants before I fenced my garden with one-inch mesh fence. Last
year they got into my pepper garden and ate the Jalapenos down to the ground
and this spring they got into my son's tomato patch and ate several of the
young plants, which really suprised me.

We had our first rabbits two years ago. As a child of suburbia, I have to
tell
you I was thrilled to see "wildlife" in the garden. I even planted
carrots,
which weren't touched.

Amazingly, I really have seen no damage at all by them, and I saw rabbits
on my
property regularly all summer. It makes me wonder what all the
handwringing
over critters is about.
