How to protect your garden from rodents using improvised means: a fence won't help
The garden needs protection in winter – the gardener understands that frost is far from the most dangerous threat to trees.
It should be noted that tree trunks need to be whitewashed, as they may be affected by sunburn in the spring.
It is also important to add that the category of rodents includes hares, which literally gnaw the bark off trees when there is nothing to eat in the forest.
Let us turn to simple but effective recommendations from the expert of the online publication Belnovosti and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
How to protect trees from rodents in the garden
First of all, you should wrap the trunks of young trees with nylon tights.
Ordinary spruce branches are also suitable, which rodents do not like because of the needles and the taste of the bark.
If large tree branches are lying on the ground, it is recommended to put them on supports - it is much easier for hares to gnaw the bark from the branches, since it is thinner there.
If you find mouse holes, it is better to place poisoned bait near them.
