Garden Pests!

Growing a garden has taught me one thing....to hate wildlife! 4 tomatoes have ripened this week (1 each day) and before we can touch them something has stuck its nasty little teeth in and left a gash. It doesn't even bother to eat them! I am so mad I am considering getting John down here with his concealed weapons permit to do a little target practice. I hope Hank and Lily don't like tomatoes they will be here tomorrow!

Mike Figuredo told me one time that I could spray a dish soap/water solution on plants to keep bugs off. He may be a little special, but he is a great gardener! :)

That is one of the many home solutions I have tried without luck. Cayenne pepper also does nothing to deter these mutated Florida freaks of the wildlife world! Mike Figuredo fails me again!
