But they keep coming back. LOL.

I have raised beds, so they don't eat much of my garden. Other than run around, I haven't seen a lot of bunny damage. The armadillos on the other hand are so destructive. They did little holes in the ground, to eat the grubs, I'm sure.

the years. Could you borrow dogs for a bit, off&on?

a little.

I quickly looked at answers to see if I was the only one. I am glad I am not. I used to live on rabbit when I had no money to buy food.

I saw 9 running around in a one block area. His friend lives in a neighborhood but near open space. Usually coyotes will reduce the bunny population. But coyotes don't fit with the sanitized living most Americans prefer. So those are the things that get killed or exterminated. Anyone can kill a coyote in our state as they are nuisance animals.

I'm noticing more around my house and I do live out in the country so I expect to hear the coyotes singing and hooting in the night soon. They go where the food is and they'll be coming for my bunnies soon. Which doesn't make me sad, they are food

Or, you can find online or at some feed stores, a product that simulates coyote urine. Scares off any of their prey animals. I'd put that around my landscaping. You just have to reapply after rain. It doesn't have much smell for humans.

I laughed at some of the responses. Instead of the Lounge, you might want to try the Gardening group. That's where that link will take you.

ate every one of my pea plants this spring.
fingers crossed they havent discovered the beans.

I've never used one, so I don't know if they're effective, but they look like they would be.

Go to your local feed store and see if they have that or any other smelly bunny repellent.


Also, look for the burrows and mark them for later modifications...nothing you can do about a momma bunny and her kittens when they're nesting unless you want to use a final solution and flood the nests. And the doe will move her kittens into s new burrow if she feels her nest is too vulnerable, so you need to put fox spray near structures and trees/bushes to get her to move further off your property when she decides to move.
After the babies left the nest, I started dumping the dog leavings and used kitty litter down the burrows.
Between the fox spray solution and my additions to the burrows furnishings, we didn't have bunny problems for the next two years we lived at that property...
Did I ever tell the story about clipping a baby bunny's ear half off while weed-wacking the lower backyard? We got it to the wildlife rescue after a quick calm down and patch up so it survived, but my stepdaughter still doesn't forgive me for the trauma...they scream like something getting it's throat cut.

They actually work for a lot of varmints, and deer too.

Mothballs will eventually dissolve if you get a lot of rain however. So you need to check occasionally and put more out when the previous ones have dissolved.

I can still get mothballs at the dollar store or most discount stores like Walmart or Kmart.

Good luck.

moved in. Not really suggesting this, but it did get rid of them. I personally like watching the rabbits come out of hiding to eat.

It works for birds, maybe it will work for bunnies. I think they have them at Home Depot.

Got room for an owl nest box?
