When you are growing your own food you are in control of every step of the growing process — from seed selection and soil and pest management all the way to harvesting and composting. Plus a garden can provide a relaxing way to connect with nature and work with your hands.
And while a home garden might sound intimidating, gardening can be done on any scale, from a windowsill of kitchen herbs to a backyard vegetable plot. With the right plan in hand, a home garden can easily fit the demands of busy lives and tight budgets.

THE NATURAL WAY TO RUN OFF CRITTERS

PREDATOR PEE (URINE)
https://www.predatorpeestore.com/maine-outdoor-solutions.html

COYOTE PEE
https://www.predatorpeestore.com/coyotepee-16-oz-scenttag-super-saver-combo_moreinfo.html

This works by allowing you to use a pest animal’s natural predator/prey survival instinct to stop the pest from causing damage to your yard, garden, home, barn, shed, garage, crops, plants, trees and shrubs as well as cars, trucks, campers, RV’s and other vehicles and power equipment.
It provides the scent of the predator to repel pests that are the coyote’s primary prey. This natural raccoon repellent spray also works on deer, groundhogs, iguanas, woodchucks, opossum, gophers, rats, roof rats, Norway rats, and marmots. When these critters catch the scent of a predator coyote nearby, they want to leave fast!
