hmmm...try a solution of hot pepper powder and water, sprayed onto the
ripening fruit. I understand some folks bring the mix to a boil, then cool it down. Strain before pouring into sprayer through cheescloth or something similar to avoid stoppages. Difficulty with this approach is that you need to respray from time to time, especially after a rain. And, of course, you have to rinse off the fruit before eating....but you do that anyway, don't you? "MPost" wrote in message newsx35d.17431$He1.6517@attbi_s01... I have a great pear tree in my front yard that provides some of the greatest, sweetest pears I've ever tasted. However, the squirrels have found this out as well and in the past few years, have gotten to all of the pears before I have. Any ideas on how I can prevent them from stealing my harvest? There are plenty of other trees nearby, so preventing them from climbing the trunk of the pear tree wouldn't help. |
