I personally find mechanical protection preferable to poisons for all kinds of reasons, so I tend to go that route whenever possible. I've seen people make small pens around their garden space, covered sides and on top with chicken wire. Have you considered something like that?

I am sending a lot of Love to you Materlvr.
I use the hottest peppers that need full body protection to save the seeds. It was even to me by Native Americans. Please find some Native Americans in your area and see if they will give you some of their hot pepper seeds used to keep animals away from their crops. Farmers Hugs/ Farmers Hugs / Jesus Hugs Amen!!
