#gardenpests — Public Fediverse posts

Well damn! Something has been nibbling on the vegetable plants at the #CommunityGarden. TBH, I think a deer figured out how to jump over the electric fence (though I did find the fence open a couple of times this month, so that could have just put out the "welcome mat"). I recall finding what looked like deer tracks near the pumpkin patch, where the green pumpkins on the outer edge all had huge chunks taken out of them.

In my plot, my mammoth sunflower was de-leaved pretty high up (deer), as well as some squash and bean plants. Luckily, they don't like my flowers, or the Nightshades, and seem to have left my plot neighbor's corn alone... For now...

I think we need a real fence around the garden. Sigh...

I've been expanding the garden around the well for a few years now. It was starting to re-seed itself, but some turkeys had a seed feast in the early spring!

Damn groundhog ate most of the leaves off of two of my black hollyhocks -- that are just about to bloom! Ugh! It takes two years go get them to bloom. Grrrr... Other than trap and release, any solutions out there? What *don't* they like to eat?!!

I found this cool moth while gardening, yesterday. Later I identified the photo as a Large Yellow Underwing and learned that it’s caterpillar is a serious garden pest.
The lovely moth was fortunate that I didn’t identify it until later.

Quick and dirty attempt at dissuading the swamp hens from my garlic. Need to build something better.

(Dear swamphens I hope you all trip embarrassingly!)
