HERE WE GO AGAIN.......AND THIS TIME I MEAN WAR ☹☹☹

Oh Dd !!!!!!!! that is what I call fighting talk, I`m with you in spirit and hope the plan is a good one....

oh dear dotty, whats causing this, is it badgers or moles

Linc It is still being hatched....San Badgers or Fox take your pick? we have both.

Good luck with your plans :o)

If it's Foxes, Dd, try human urine around the affected area of soil! Sounds awful, but when our local football club had a problem with Foxes digging around the goalmouths, the players were asked to 'perform' after the match and no Fox damage since. Fingers crossed. If it's Badgers, I'm clueless as to a deterrent. Good luck : o )

Thanks TT........Shirley I am sure our Grandson would be more than pleased to perfom lol (might be a little cold though)

Good for your Gradson Dotty....we have the same problems here but its Foxes and Squirrels.......lol

how about rabbits-- the ones in my garden are hungry and digging for roots everywhere

badgers were a problem for spritzhenry last year. she wrote several blogs on her trials and tribulations. worth having a browse there.

I just hope you have more success with your 'cunning plan' than Baldrick ever had with his.

LOL, Wagger, don't involve Weasels too ! : o ))

Oh oh! I hope you win your battle DD!

I hope you have better luck solving your problem than I have had with my moles, DD2 :)

Good luck DD i hope you sort it out soon..:o))

Seaburn I remember it well.......Pam we dont get any rabbits, just squirrels, badgers and Mr Fox....that is quite enough for one small garden!! Wagger Baldrick and I already have enough in common lol
Karen and Gee....I have to win this one, we open in four months....HELP!!

We have armadillos here, they dig huge burrows and are difficult to trap. The people with armadillo problems are the folks with nice lawns, because armadillos like the grubs that live in the sod. If your yard is full of moss, tree roots and weeds, as mine is, the armadillos leave you alone!
There's a powdered, concentrated mixture of fox and bobcat urine available that's said to repel prey animals such as rats and rabbits....wonder if something like that would work on whatever you have.

Looks like Badger to me as earth dug up would be thrown further back when its dug think of the length of legs to how far back the soil is.

perishing rabbits have been burrowing here again-- I've a long sandstone trough and they made life a misery throwing out all my little bulbs and rockery plants-- my cunning plan was to remove the top layer of soil and lay netting in and then replacing the soil-- they do try and have dug only today ( Grrrr) but only the top couple of inches-- I'm just hoping that they learn.......

also if you have a dog ........ if you can dot there poops around the fence on the out side .........this marks the territory of your animal , so others normally wont go there !!! we found this so 2 protect our hens ...

Cristina we will have to borrow our daughter's dog Colin he is a dach and will see anything off!! lol

haha lol they say the smaller ther are !!!!!!!!!!!

A dach's is perfect if you have badgers as they are a badger hound .

SBG we have to be careful he does not get stuck in their set, which is two gardens down from us.

we had a lakeland terrier that got into lots of sticky holes :o)

As long as he managed to get out again........!!

I had to buy a new young apple tree..... and extra long rabbit guards.......Grrrrrrr
