Badger damage to lawn
My mother has a very neat and tidy garden of which she is justifiably
proud (she is 87 and suffers quite badly from arthritis). But from time to time, especially in dry weather it seems, her lawn gets dug up by what she says are badgers. It's either badgers or foxes. Whichever, during the night her lawn gets covered in small holes, like golfer's divots, where some animal has presumably been digging for worms. The neighbours suffer the same problem. Is there a anything she can scatter to deter them? The garden is well fenced and there's no obvious sign of where they come in, although they may come over the front wall, about 4ft high. Recently she's tried painting bits of wood and odd lumps of concrete with (proper) creosote and leaving them around the garden in the hope that the smell would deter whatever it is, but to no avail. Any suggestions? (She doesn't have access to lion dung!) -- Chris E-mail: christopher[dot]hogg[at]virgin[dot]net |
