Sick of those squirrels terrorising the plants in your garden? While squirrels can be a great site to look at from a distance, they can become a nescience when in your garden. Follow these steps to rid them for good!
Instructions
Things You’ll Need:
- 1 1/2 Gallons of Water
- 8 Caps of Murphy's Oil Soap
- 3 Tablespoons of Cayenne Pepper
Step 1
Before you combine all of the ingredients together, you should know that you have the option of putting up higher netting around your plants to keep the squirrels out. Once you're plants get big enough you would be able to remove the nets due to your plants size.
Step 2
Get a large container that you can put 1 1/2 gallons of water in. If you can't find one, just simply use a milk jug.
Step 3
Once you have your water, add in the Murphy's oil soap and pepper. Be careful when adding the pepper as the wind may blow it towards your eyes if you're doing this out.
Step 4
Once you have all of the ingredients mixed together, shake up the jug and pour into a bottle with a spray attachment. Proceed to spray the mixture all over your plants and even the soil. This will not hurt the plants, the goal is to keep the squirrels and other animals away.
