Rabbits can quickly eat their way through any garden, leaving you angry and frustrated. In fact, many people deal with this same problem on a yearly basis. Most end up giving up gardening altogether. But you do not have to quit your hobby just because of these little critters. There are lots of ways to help protect your precious veggies - remember, rabbits do not just eat carrots. This article will help you build a great fence to protect your garden from rabbits this year.
First, how do you know if you actually have rabbits getting into your garden? There are several warning signs. You may find small pellet-sized droppings. Rabbits will leave these little round droppings all over the place. Also check for signs of chewing on all your leaves, or for damage to bark at the bottom of your trees. If you do have rabbits, continue on and build a fence to keep them out.
Surround your entire garden with mesh fencing at least two to three feet high. Make sure this mesh goes at least six inches below the ground as well. At the top of your fence, bend the mesh outward to prevent rabbits from climbing over your fence.
A fence like this should only cost a few dollars and an hour of your time to make. It will be worth it when your garden stays happy and healthy this year. Remember to check your fence every now and then for signs of damage. Some rabbits are just persistent!
