The trouble with wildlife in the lotty is, they haven't read the script ! I did find that making a sillhouette of a stalking cat, with threatening devilish eyes, works a treat with CATS ! Birds can do what they please. I welcome them as long as they swing around on the feeder areas. Keep 'em happy there, and I'm happy. Butterflies can flutter by, as they seem to be totally unaware of the netting so carefully spread out over the cabbages 'n' whatnot. If a butterfly can outwit me, then ANYTHING can ! They are all there for a purpose. Perhaps a higher purpose than we know. I am just a servant to provide for them. At least, that's what my cat tells me !
We had a real problem with rats.We have a forestry behind us,we were also feeding the birds.I thought that the birds were right greedy so and so's untill we saw the pesky vermin eating it all! We have unfortunately had to stop feeding the birds,boo.But on the plus side the rats have disappeared,hurrah!
