Once again I had to rescue frogs from the deep window wells we have in our garden at the side of the house. This time I believe I actually saved the same frog twice in one day.My bad for releasing it close to the windows.
The other interesting challenge I am having now is that I realized I am growing my beautiful sunflowers right next to 'squirrel highway', i.e. my back fence.
Now that the plants are as tall, or taller than the fence the squirrels are simply snipping off the flower heads and running away with them. What you do not see in the photo above are flowers, when you should be seeing these.
Sometimes they even drop them and I find them lying in the grass. Do I have clumsy squirrels?
I am thinking of trying tinfoil on top of the fence, I have heard it is good to keep pets off of furniture so maybe it will work for squirrels too!
Any thoughts on how I can stop the squirrels from using the back fence as their highway without hurting them?
