Gardeners, help me with rabbits...

I need to stop that, as I intend to do the munching on them!

Please give me some rabit-proofing suggestions. Organic is preferred of course but really I just need to stop it.

No, I cannot shoot them, and putting a fence up woul dbe difficuly since I don't actually own the area.

Thanks!

Use Cayenne Pepper, ground up. You can either spread it over the plants with a shaker, or you can put it in nylons, and hang them from the plants. It will keep varmints away from the goods.

Human hair or cayenne pepper works well.

If trapped, they are delicious with fava beans and a dry chianti.
