On Sat, 25 Sep 2004 01:07:32 GMT, "MPost" opined: I have a peach tree. I harvested at least 10 bushels of peaches this year, and that did not count the peaches with one bite out of it from the squirrels. If you pear tree is producing so few fruits that a squirrel can compete with you, maybe it's an idea to find out how to increase yields. There is no compassionate way to keep wildlife out of the wild. It is not so simple. My yard supports between two and three dozens squirrels, due to the presence of about twenty hickories, several oaks, and several walnuts. During the warm season they eat in succession elm, ash, and maple seeds. They never touched the raspberries, for example, though they have always taken most of the mulberries from a weeping specimen in the frontyard. But then all ash trees died within a year, due to the borer, and suddenly they have a hole in their crop cycle. They have hammered the raspberries and even tried a few tomatoes. |
