I have planted spider lilly and daffidel bulbs only to own them eaten. What product is available to prevent this. Once I could get a peppery product mixed near wild bird seed which worked but very soon can't find. Have tried other products with little success. Thanks.
you can try chili or cayenne pepper moth balls will save most critters away
Hi here is a well agreed attack go buy your self the biggest can of Cyann Pepper.. that will deter them just sprinkle it on here it washes off so after rain re treat... works great. try placing a strip of screen or netting on top of the bulbs and cover next to soil. The flowers will still come through in the spring.
Answers: My bulb bed are wrapped in chicken wire. Use a burried roll in the region of 6" in diameter and be sure to close off the ends as the little buggers are clever. Secure near wire and the bulbs are safe.
Chemicals are ineffective when the squirrels are foraging surrounded by the Winter after eating up their nut supply.
