When Birds Attack!

These birds are relentless! I put up bird netting and they still found a way into my tomatoes! I have lost aver 50 tomatoes! Oh and did I mention one pepper?! This is crazy. I re-netted my tomatoes and we'll see if I can salvage a few after all my efforts.

This would be one of the guilty little monsters helping himself to some of the tomatoes I had to throw out just this morning!

I hope birds do not eat lemons!

My squash and cucumbers are still untouched!

This is the ruined pepper!

Maybe my garden angel needs a BB gun??? Hmmmmm!

Garden Pests !!

Today I spied the first squirrel I have ever had in my yard! So I have decided that it must be the squirrel and birds that are helping themselves to my tomato buffet. I have just ordered some plant pest netting (it will arrive tomorrow) and I hung two aluminum pie tins to try and scare them off as well.

I have read suggestions of feeding the birds and squirrels but I believe this will only attract more to my yard.

I'll keep you posted!

Holes in my tomatoes!!!

Something invaded my tomatoes!!! I did not encounter this problem last year. These are the affected tomatoes. I sprayed all my plants with Garden Safe Fruit and Vegetable insect killer. It is safe to use up to day of harvest. I inspected all my plants and saw no sign of the guilty intruders.
