I guess there was a squirel plague that year or something.<BR/><BR/>I've tried everything-scarecrows, dogs, fake owls, cds. One year, someone told me to tie a little tulle bag with red pepper flakes over the peaches. Squirrels would get one dose of the pepper and leave the tree alone.<BR/><BR/>So, I sewed up dozens of these cute little tulle bags, put in the flakes and tied them over the choicest peaches.<BR/><BR/>I must have weird squirrels. They thought the pepper flakes were condiments for the peaches.<BR/><BR/>I found those blasted tulle bags all over the farm, for years--acres from the peach trees. I think they stored them in their nests and threw one down now and then, just to thumb their noses at me.<BR/><BR/>I didn't get any peaches that year either.TexasWrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11300895218799650405noreply@blogger.com
