Signs of rabbit infestation
Rabbits feed on young plants, seeds, broccoli, carrot, lettuce, fruits, and herbs like parsley and cilantro. They also eat ornamental plants, flowers, shrubs, etc. They gnaw the plants, and it is easy to recognize plants eaten by rabbits as they make clean cuts, unlike other pests. So if you wake up to a damaged garden with clean-cut plants, it is definitely the work of rabbits. Also, check for their pellets to ensure rabbit infestation.

Remedies to get rid of rabbits
If you have observed the presence of rabbits in your garden, there are some steps that you can try to get rid of them. It would be advisable to remove dense areas from your garden. By doing this, the rabbits would leave your area to look for places where they could easily get food. Moreover, this will ensure that your garden is not intruded by rabbits in the future too. Planting onions in your garden can also be deterrent to rabbits, as they do not like the smell of onions. There are several other plants that rabbits dislike. Some of which include tomatoes, potatoes, mint, leeks, asparagus, etc. Planting these would also be a good idea if you want to keep the rabbits away. Other than this, sprinkling dried sulphur or human hair can also do the trick.

Methods of eliminating rabbit infestation
However, if these simple home remedies are not effective, it would be best to give us a call. In case of large infestation, trapping is the best method. However, the most effective way of stopping rabbits from entering your garden is fencing. Creating a fence around the garden with chicken wire that has one inch holes would be a great idea. Make sure that the chicken wire goes four inches deep into the ground so that the rabbits are not able to enter by burrowing the ground. So, if rabbits have become a nuisance by damaging your garden, do not fret. Give us a call and we would be at your service for rabbit pest control.
