Fighting garden pests with dog fur
Our puppy just finished going through a big shed. We’re talking handfuls of fur coming off her! Ughh … I spend a portion of each day sweeping or vacuuming just to get up all the hair!
Her shedding did give me an idea though! We have cats that like to pass through our garden. Heck, we’ve got a few raccoons that like to visit as well. So I decided to save the dog fur and try placing it in the garden in order to see if the dog smell scared the animals away.
Have you tried anything like this to keep pests from your yard?
I think it will work to some degree. At least it’s worth a try and it won’t hurt anything. Fur is organic right?
