Post #6243694

I am so upset - I went out over the weekend and cleaned up my gardens a bit... and I found some of the worst evidence! I couldn't find any of my Trillium even poking up through the dirt so i began digging around a bit and found little tunnels going through the whole area - the voles ATE MY TRILLIUMS!! I am sooo disappointed! Then I go over to my Iris bed, after realizing the deer have found my Camellia and low and behold they have eaten my Iris's - deer aren't even known for eating Iris's! :-( I just wanted to cry, they found me! After 3 years of them not being in my yard, they found me (I already had rabbit's) - and its the deer that haven't read the books on what they like to eat and don't like to eat - so they are eating EVERYTHING! I know it is due to all the clearing around the area they keep doing - I can't stand the site of them clear cutting for all the new subdivisions, but that's another discussion. I'm not sure what I will have to do in regards to the deer... I am so worried about my hosta bed and everything else!! I might have to put up fences or move all my hostas... aghhhhhhh!! Ok, thanks for listening! I just needed to rant for a bit.
