RING of DEATH 2
For the last 7 days, most of my pumpkins are slowly being eaten alive.
I set 8 mouse traps and next day only one mouse trap remained.
The wounds are trying to heal but everyday/night the critters come back and keep chewing out the same places plus new places.
1) I coated the knawed out areas with sulphur but they just eat the sulpher with the pumpkins.
2) I tried detering them with ZeroTol, but they just eat right through the evaporated hydrogen peroxide,
3) I tried Garlic on and around the damaged area's but they just eat the garlic.
4) I put carrots and raspberries in traps near the pumpkins, and you guessed it they ate them and the traps did not close.
Now I'm going with a ring of death around every pumpkin. Hopefully I catch some of these varmints ( what ever they are ) tonight. Stay tuned. This is War.
