Repellants for Garden Pest Control Ro-pel®
Ro-pel® gives a harmless but very bitter taste to all chewables and edibles that you want to protect. It also repels just about all above-ground creatures including birds, chipmunks, deer, ground hogs, opossums, porcupines, rabbits, raccoons, skunks, squirrels, and woodchucks. Because many flowering plants grow fast, and new shoots will not taste bitter, spraying must be repeated every few weeks during the growing season. Even so, Ro-pel® provides a sound way of dealing with nearly all small animal problems in flower and ornamental gardens. Ro-pel® also protects seeds and bulbs. A simple soaking for one minute in Ro-pel® before planting will make your seeds and bulbs unpalatable to squirrels and other foraging animals. Shake-Away™ Small Critter Powder
Shake-Away™ Small Critter Powder is a refined form of fox urine that comes as a powder. One 20-ounce container (see below) holds enough to create a protective strip one foot wide and 600 feet long around the perimeter of a vegetable garden. Shake-Away™ can also be sprinkled lightly over vulnerable bulbs, bushes, and flowers (which it will not harm) for maximum coverage. The 20-ounce bottle of Shake-Away™ comes with a limited manufacturer’s guarantee of effectiveness. This repellent needs to be replenished fairly often—most notably after a heavy rain. It may also lose its effectiveness over time because target animals residing nearby may eventually deduce that there are no coyotes around despite the presence of coyote scent.
This versatile raccoon and squirrel pest repellant (a sprayable liquid mix of mustard oil and chile extract in a vegetable base) works both by odor and by taste. So it is good at discouraging raccoons and opossum attacks on garbage and can keep these animals from digging in gardens, lawns, and landscaped areas. It resists washing off, and its pleasant lemon scent is inoffensive to people.
Designed for spraying over a fairly large area, this repellant discourages moles, voles, gophers (pocket gophers), squirrels, raccoons, armadillos, etc. from digging up your landscape or gardens by making the sprayed soil taste bad. Whole Control won’t harm plants, turf, or soil and is non-toxic. The container comes witha hose-end sprayer for easy spray dispersal. The 32-oz. bottle will cover up to 5,000 square feet. |
