How can I keep bunnies from chewing up my flower garden?

Just a small flower bed but it makes me mad.

I've used cayenne pepper before that seemed to work pretty well. Put it around the plants, and the bunnies will stay away because they're always sniffing, and they'll snort it up their noses (won't hurt them, but they won't like it either)
Reply:Install an electric fence if you are really serious.


I'd try mothballs or something that smells bad, or spray something around the edges like perfume. Maybe ask at the pet store, they sell stuff to keep dogs and cats away, ask about rabbits. Good Luck!


Also, they sell predator-like things such as phony owls in garden supply places to scare away birds, I'd ask around and see if something like that wouldn't scare off bunnies, too.
Reply:I'm not sure where you live, but most stores around here sell wolf urine mixed with other components to keep the rabbits out. If they sense they are in wolf territory, they will probablly leave your garden right away. Depending on the size of your yard, you could also have another small garden with more appealing plants for the rabbits or set up a small feed station.
