I'm being invaded!


Ok, first it was Cutworms, devouring all the leaves of my trees, then moles, or assumed to be moles that were digging all over the yard. Then it was rabbits digging holes for a nest in the back yard. Now it is chipmunks. I knew that I had seen one in my neighbor's yard a couple of months ago but now I caught on right on my back steps. When I opened the patio door, he ran right into his little hole under the steps. Sigh, its off to the store I go for some concrete to fill the big cracks and other gaps where the steps have worn away.

I really don't mind the little creatures so long as they keep their nests in the woods. I was looking up options for getting rid of chipmunks and one was fox urine pellets. I'd sprinkle some of that but then I'd probably chase off the rabbit too which I don't want to do until her babies leave.

You would think that the smell of the dog would keep them away but noooo! they come anyway!
