Bloody rabbits
 

For the first time I have been carefully nurturing seedlings in the
greenhouse, months of sowing them, thinning them, watering them, re-potting
them, hardening them off etc. Planted loads of them out last weekend and
three bloody rabbits have appeared and eaten the lot **!!!***!!

Know the feeling!

Pickles, the pet rabbit next door dug under the fence and scoffed the
tops off me toms! Fortunately new leaves are appearing, but I fear my
crop of Gardeners Delight will be much reduced. Funnily enough he
didn't touch the 2 Sungold nearby.

I know the problem. Might I recommend a BSA Lightning XL plus a telescopic
sight (extra)...

Alternatively, an electrified rabbit fence! We had one round the duck pond
when it was still a duck pond and it stopped the dogs from trying to get at
the ducks! IIRC, it was about 2' high and each dog's nose had to touch it
only once!

Good for the rabbits!

Next time buy some rabbit netting.

All truth passes through three stages:
First, it is ridiculed;
Second, it is violently opposed; and
Third, it is accepted as self-evident.

Well make sure you put it up very high and also bury it in the ground
For the first time ever this year I saw small rabbits climb over netting 3
ft high.

So now I shoot them !

Once shot they tend not to come back !!!
