Just a thought, flace, but you might try planting some Garlic cloves on
top of the Crocus. The little buggers might not smell them with Garlic
on top. :-)

That's a great idea, Phoenix, thanks.

I've got a bunch of garlic cloves to plant anyways. Perhaps I will do
that with the rest of my bulbs. Or at least some...

How about wrapping them in chicken wire, that should slow the squirrels
down. Or put poly bubble foam staked out over the bulbs untill they
start to come up...

When encountering squirrel problems, I've found it useful to capture
one of the squirrels, then crucify him on a tiny little cross and
place this in the garden near the vegetables they go for.

You can make a serviceable one out of two popsicle sticks, the best
approach is to use an old shoelace to lash them firmly together at
right angles to one another. Don't use a nail, the wood they make
popsicle sticks from is too light to bear a nail, the sticks will
simply splinter if you do that.

Next capture the squirrel, bait the trap with a clove of garlic, and
for best results cut the garlic open to release the smell in the air.

Finally, get the squirrel out of the cage, wear heavy gardening gloves
for this. A paperclip is best for nailing him to the cross, drive one
end through is little wrist, then wrap the paperclip back around so he
can't escape. Again, don't use nails for this.

Then place this in the garden, being careful not to kill the squirrel,
because that's THE WHOLE POINT, HIS PATHETIC SHRIEKING CRIES FOR HELP
WILL TERRIFY THE SQUIRREL POPULATION FOR MILES AROUND, NOT TO MENTION
YOUR NEIGHBORS WHO PROBABLY HAVE EYES ON YOUR VEGGIES ALSO, DON'T
TRUST THEM. And if it doesn't reduce your problem, WHO CARES, THIS IS
WHAT I CALL FUN!

7 out of 10 Squirrels like garlic for an appetitzer pleasure before they
partake of crocus.I would suggest the use of land or trip mines especially
very tiny bounching bettys.Then again , you might want to think in terms of
constructing a medieval like moat around your garden. I do not think that
catapults will be
nessecary especially if said moats are stocked with crocodiles or piranha..
Just be sure to raise your draw-bridge immediately after leaving your
garden.

you're welcome [ in advance ]

You don't think this is a tiny bit over the top... Mostly moats were
built to keep humans out not Squirrels, and the cost involved would be
such that stocking your whole garden with bulbs for squirrels to eat for
the next hundred years might be slightly cheaper...
not that I want to put you down or anything, your ideas are very
imaginative... if somewhat insane...
