I've been held hostage by little squirrel terrorists. They dig into EVERYTHING...little monsters!!! For the longest time I wasn't sure what was doing it. Then one morning I go out on the front porch and catch one tearing through one of my potted gardenias. Now I am not a member of PETA (I don't have anything against them, just not my thing) but I don't want to hurt any animals if I don't have to. I moved plants around, tried different kinds of deterrents...nothing has stopped them. As you can see by the pictures (i'm not proud...do what I gotta do to protect my babies), the nasty little buggers got their way and no longer bother my plants

The dogs get the occasional possum though. And skunk.
What scares me is that we occasionally have deer here...my yard is very well-fenced but I would be really unhappy if a deer got into my yard and the dogs got it. Probably unlikely because they are house dogs basically and are only out when I am home.
