TheUltimate Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hi All,Last night I witnessed a cute little bunny checking out my mini trees. He/She didn't do anything but it got me thinking... Should I be doing anything to deter said bunny from snacking when real food becomes scarce in the winter?your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOR Staff Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Bunnies LOVE mini lights. When they chomp on them you'll swear it wasn't a bunny, but a pair of wire cutters. As for deterring them, I don't know if there is much you can do. They are far too cute to harm/trap/etc. I would instead be ready with a bunch of butt connectors and a wagging finger (to scold said bunny).

k6ccc Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Provide a nearby better source of food?Either that or energize you mini-trees with about 10,000 volts - OK, not a good safety idea... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilM0nkey Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Moth balls. Cover the entire yard in them and just ignore any questions about the smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santas Helper Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Is there a law against trafficking rabbits? Tye-Dye it and sell it on the blackmarket as a special holiday species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santas Helper Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Actually, I think if you get coyotes to help. They don't care about wires and mini trees. It works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubado Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Moth balls DON'T work. I used boxes of them last year, even saw the rabbit sitting on them. Then in the spring you have what looks like hail in your yard and it still smells like mothballs! If you can't shoot the fury f......rs, live trap them and take em for a drive, especially an open field where hawks like roam, hey, they gotta eat too! I've already been trapping rabbits and squirrels to relocate to avoid the hassles I had last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOR Staff Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Poor bunnies! Now those tree rat squirrels.... You can kill as many of them as you like. Unfortunately I won't eat them any more since I read they were high in cholesterol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a few months they'll flip their minds and tell you the reverse is better. Everyone's gotta die of something, might as well enjoy it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
