Garden With Boogieman
RACCOONS munch on your melons.
Deer feast on your fruit trees. Rabbits
crunch your vegetables. And birds nibble
your corn.
" To avoid providing these unwelcome
guests with free meals, try scaring them
away, says a Georgia Extension gervice
wildlife biologist. . .
“No matter what you plant, you set the
table for some creature. If you plant a lot
of it, more pests can thrive,” J e?f Jackson
says. ‘‘Deer, for example, prefer succulent,
irrigated and fertilized crops to most
natural foods.”
HE EXPLAINS that devices like
scarecrows, traps and electric fences are a
few strateEies that may protect your
garden without injury to the animals.
One traditional ‘‘boogieman” tactic is
the scarecrow that presents an image of a
human to the potentially damaging animal.
Inflatable models of other natural
predators, like owls or snakes, are intend
ed to scare birgs in :%he same way.
DO THEY WORK? “Sort of and
sometimes,” Jackson admits. ‘“But it
doesn't hurt to try it. There are no negative
effects from scarecrows. No pets get ac
cidentally injured; no residue runs off into
nearby ponds. About the only thing that
can go wrong is that your neighbors may
laugfi if they don't think it’s working.”
Scarecrows work on animals that can be
alarmed by things they see — primarily
deer and birds. The longer a scarecrow is
in place, however, the less likely the animal
is to pay attention to it.
“Animals that can be scared can learn;
they can adapt and adjust to the presence
of something new out there,”” he explains.
But there are things you can do, he says,
that will make );our scarecrow work better.
* *
“THE MAIN THING,” he says, “‘is to
put the scarecrow into the garden before
the animals get into the habit of going
there and to remember that the animals
will adjust — so keep changing it.”
Jackson advises moving the scarecrow
around the field occasionally and adding
some motion to it. “‘Hang strings from the
arms and tie on some li Etweigit pie pans
or something that will %)low in the wind,”
he says. Jackson adds that changing its
dress also makfs it flore*effective.
A LOUD NOISE — such as a ‘cracker
shell’ from a 12-gauge shotgun — can also
put the scare c%oser to the animal. You

want the animal to associate the scarecrow
with bad things,” he explains.
However, he warns, scarecrows aren’t
likely to work at all on some animals, such
as the raccoons and squirrels that raid your
corn. ‘‘You'll keep them out better by us
ing either an electric fence or a cage trap,”
Jackson says.
. v
CAGE TRAPS are ideal for catching
small animal pests in the garden because
they won’t harm the family pets.
(Remember, if you want to catch an animal,
be sure to get permission from your con
servation ranger first).
‘A good trap to catch a pest animal is
a good example of approrpiate technology.
It gets the target animal, leaves no
Foisonous residue, is reusable, and lasts a
ong time,”” Jackson says.
ince raccoons are clever, he safirs atten
tion to details is very important when mak
ing a ‘“‘set’’ with the trap.
“MAKE THE BAIT in the trap the rac
coon’s easier choice for a meal,” he says.
‘“‘Put chunks of melon and some cmmbf;d
hamburger inside the trap. At the entrance
place a paper towel used to wipe meat
juices from a skillet.” e
The juice will lure the critter to the door
— but it still leaves him huniry. “Then
tempt him by leaving a trail of hamburger
tidbits to the main bait at the back of the
trap,” Jackson says.
TO CATCH rabbits, Jackson recom
mends a box trap at the ed%e of your
garden. “‘Dry cob corn or an old agple is
good bait,”” he says. ‘“‘But perhaps the best
bait is a handful of fresh rabbit droppings.
Rabbits will go to sniff them to see what
other rabbit has been in there.”
If rabbits are a serious hindrance,
Jackson says a gardener’s best bet is to
fence the area with 30-inch wide strips of
one-inch mesh chicken wire. “It must be
tight to the %round or rabbits will get
under. A cylinder of the mesh will protect
stems of trees and shrubs,” he says.
BUT IF YOU'VE got a problem with
deer, you'll need a different strategy —an
electric fence. A new and reportedf)}" effec
tive baited electric fence is a single wire
placed about 30 inches above the ground
and baited with peanut butter. ‘“Mix
peanut butter and vegetable oil in a 50-50
slurry. Treat the whole lenith of fence,” he
advises. “‘Deer will smell the food, lick the
wire and get shocked. Be sure and reapply
bait every 2-4 weeks.”
