Rabbits have been eating our newly sprouted flowers. Any ideas how to
prevent this are welcome.

Kill those little *******s! That way you can teach don't ****ers a
lesson they will never forget. Shove a carrot up their asshole and
bake $350, for 2 hours. Season to taste. No more flower problems once
his relatives find out.

a .22 works very well & it's not a waste since rabbits are
pretty tasty (unlike squirrel). or import a fox if you or your
neighbors don't have chickens. coyotes also eat rabbits.
i wonder if i'll develop a rabbit problem after i take care
of my fox problem... (are fox any good to eat? or am i just
going to have a pelt? yes, s/he needs to die. my chickens are
more useful than a chicken eating fox)

That's a pretty expensive recipe.

My brother, the florist, uses dried blood to keep rabbits away from his
flowers.

A quiet pellet gun in an upstairs window is less obtrusive for rabbits
than a .22 (as the police get a call for "man with a gun"). Just stick to
the colder months after first frost, because it is hard to skin them with
fleas and ticks jumping onto you for a fresh warm body.

What's wrong with squirrel? Just parboil them 15-20 minutes, discard the
broth, and cube them up for use in pasta or rice dishes like cooked
turkey. My boss enjoyed shooting them, but the only way I could get him
to eat them was squirrel chili.

It is probably not good to eat too much preditor meat. Native Americans
that ate coyotes ended up with excessive vitamin A, which can cause bone
problems. So stick to vegitarians and fish eaters.
