we planted ~8 strawberry plants. And when they first started fruiting, the squirrels got the first two. So I put mesh covers over them. But then the bees weren’t pollenating them anymore so we just had strawberry flowers, no fruits. So I took the mesh off, and the rabbits/deer ate all the flowers… and the rest of the plants.

My garden would give me a huge yeild if I could shoot off some of the deer. Damn pests, almost tame and keep to gardens eating my berries, plants and content of bird feeder. But this being a residential area hunting here is “frowned upon” understandably.
