On a more serious note, chicken wire around should keep them at bay for a while. Hmm, not sure if I fancy wiring each individually, or 600 feet of planting, either side, with the netting dug in to stop the buggers getting under. I was more thinking of those plastic tubes you see when they plant saplings on motorway verges? Would they work do you know? The tubes are very good, once again if maintained. Probably better with chicken wire for such a large area. Why cant you plant some decent trees by the way, leylandii are a real pain and not much benefit to wildlife. Beyond that, loathe as I am to say it, get a guy in with a shotgun. I AM a guy with a shotgun, but I am sick of rabbit pie and staying up all night hunting the things. I don't even like killing them, so would prefer to protect the trees rather than annihilate all the rabbits I probably really mean I am a *rap shot, and too sentimental about bunnies... Hope you don't use lead shot? Rather than just protecting the trees themselves, might it be better to fence off your plot as a whole and kill many birds with one stone? ********************************************** 'You can't win 'em all.'

So sue me. http://www.globalrichlist.com/ Newsgroup ettiquette 1) Tell everyone the Trolls don't bother you. 2) Say you've killfiled them, yet continue to respond. 3) Tell other people off who repsond despite doing so yourself. 4) Continually talk about Trolls while maintaining they're having no effect. 5) Publicly post killfile rules so the Trolls know how to avoid them. 6) Make lame legal threats and other barrel scraping manoeuvres when your abuse reports are ignored. 7) Eat vast quantities of pies. 8) Forget to brush your teeth for several decades. 9) Help a demon.local poster with their email while secretly reading it. 10) Pretend you're a hard ******* when in fact you're as bent as a roundabout. 11) Become the laughing stock of Usenet like Mabbet 12) Die of old age 13) Keep paying Dr Chartham his fees and hope one day you will have a penis the girls can see. --------------------------------------- "If you would'nt talk to them in a bar, don't *uckin' vote for them" "Australia was not *discovered* it was invaded" The Big Yin.
