    I made the solution as stated by Dove but whenever I sprayed using a fine mister, the liquid just seemed to run off the leaves. Previous years I've used pellets and grit but I have a pooch now, so hunting is my new leisure.

    In past years I've always guillotined them image but this year I'm going to collect in bags and throw in the binimage 

  • I've got a dyke(sorry streamimage)for one boundary can they swim?

     I would love a hedge hog ,never deterred them but never seen any evidence of one either. Last year I thought I had a Toad but never saw him when I cleared the hosta pots.

    I would scatter Bird food but my blackbirds even feed from a wicker hanging basket filled with homemade fatandseed lumps. I can't ground feed cos of encouraging any verminimage
