I put out fox urine 2 days ago to repel rabbits. I hadn't seen any for a while but wanted to be safe. It rained last night to wash it away. Tonight when I went out to cover pumpkins for the low 40's, I found they hit the 1493 Witter-Benson again. Instead of a few nibbles they skinned an area the size of my hand. I have healed worse groundhog damage, and I painted it with Daconil and dusted it with sulfur. I found some wire fencing in the garden, just enough to circle the damaged pumpkin. I have found they will keep returning. I also re-applied fox urine. Tomorrow Jacob will be hunting and spreading garlic powder. I will get some chicken wire to protect the 359 Foss. For the rest of the season, no going to the garden un-armed. I have taken out 2 already and found another dead one by the garden, but that wasn't enough.
