Bananas...They LOVE bananas!!!!!

I know because we have a family that nests under our shed.
Since they don't bother with our garden beds, we let them live in moderate peace. Mind you, I'm not going to prevent anyone else from doing what they do unless it's just plain animal cruelty. You know, that "really sadistic" stuff like shooting with bow and arrow, burning alive ...that crazy crap.
I figure there's enough stuff that will kill them already around, so why should I add to it.

Seriously,bananas?That would've never had occurred to me.

Thing raped my tomato garden last year so you'd think tomato would work...nope.Apples were next for the durability factor...nope.

If banana doesn't do the trick its time for it to be dispatched the old fashioned way.

I've had success using apples, although they certainly enjoyed my kale, parsley, and cucumbers.
