Hi I have about 6 rabbits running around in my front and back yard. I'm over by Main and Oriole. Do we have an infestation? I was delighted when I spotted the first one on Easter, but now I am concerned that my vegetable garden will be invaded. Any tips?

I noticed waaay more bunnies than I ever used to see, but thankfully our neighborhood skunk may have passed on.

Sprinkle cayenne pepper around your garden. Enjoy the cotton tails hopping along.

It is probably babies who have left the nest.

Or getting forced out of their nest by the rain

I've seen 4 in my yard and they are not babies.

You are not being invaded, they are wild rabbits just leaving the nest, their Momma did a good job raising them, now their job is to run and be free! Put a fence around your garden.

We have a ton by us too. Over near the library. Fences around the garden won’t help. We put chicken wire around our flowers and witnessed the rabbits climbing the wire.

@holiday What does this do? For the garden?

Keeps the vermin away!

You place it on the outside perimeter on your garden, creating a barrier and does not jeopardize the garden. It will have some odor for a little bit, but there is your trade off. some smell or vermin eating your beloved garden.

You should only be concerned if they aren’t wearing masks. Call the police if you see this !

I'm at the other end of Karen's ^^ block. We have one "resident lawn bunny". My husband just remarked a few days ago that he used to see a *lot* of them and now sees none. They must have merely moved to a new location.

Put marigolds in your garden. Keeps pest away.

I just moved to the area and I'm honestly delighted with the amount of rabbits - they're EVERYWHERE! Guess I won't be attempting a vegetable garden. They're so dang cute

I have a good recipe for a stew. No I’m Just kidding. Fence off the garden with chicken wire. My neighbor has the same problem and a tight woven chicken wire seams to work well
