Are you all having the same issue as me, you love your rabbits but at the same time you want to keep your flowers from being a midnight snack. For instance, your sunflowers?
Don’t worry because this hot pepper spray has got ya’ll covered!
Cayenne Pepper is a natural deterrent and will keep many of our furry friends safely out of our flower beds including deer, squirrels and you guessed it rabbits!
So how does it work? You simply add about 2 quarts of water and a tablespoon of Cayenne pepper into a pot. Boil the mixture for about 20 minutes. After boiling the mixture take it off the stove and let it cool and then strain it through a cheesecloth. After cooling and straining the mixture, place it into a spray bottle and spray the surfaces and plants that you want to protect from being a snack!
Just don’t spray any plants that you’re going to eat or else you will have a heated dinner with the folks!
Spray this mixture every day on your plants for two weeks to help keep the critters away. Don’t spray while your plants are in direct sunlight though or you will scorch them.
Cayenne Pepper is safe to use on your plants and will not hurt them making this a great deterrent but if you have extra plants and don’t mind sharing, it’s always great to share with our furry friends!
If you have any other suggestions though on how to keep my sunflowers safe from becoming a midnight snack, please let me know in the comments!
