Thank you for sharing your design. I have fixed my mother in law's swing. Very good video. I could not find the metal clips but found plastic clips that worked perfectly. Thanks for the design and info.
This is fantastic. I was just wondering if someone designed a plastic snap close bowl that could go around my apples because my squirrels ate all!! I just started growing apples this year and now I know what to do. Genius.
OMG! We can’t even kill a few caterpillars anymore!? You realise they will metamorph into butterflies or moths that will fly from the front-yard back onto your plants right!? GEEZZZUS!!
I have already tried this method. The squirrels just chew through the branch fruit drops clam shell pops open and they retrieve the prize. It does work for birds. My recommendation is to not plant your fruit trees near large trees they nest in or any tree that they normally scavenge for nuts.
I've had a peach tree for years and the one that ate them were the squirrel. I'm trying your Idea,did some and I will do more when I have the containers. That you for posting this
I just lost all my apples to the deers. They stuck their head over my lil gate and net. Then they got me for my peach tree. Didn't even leave a branch or leaf standing😢
Possibly, but they should be transparent for the sun to go through, and you also have to be careful with the heat. If it is too hot there, flimsy plastic may melt.
I found this video because I was looking for a solution for the same problem, but with squirrels eating my apples. I live in the south where apple trees don’t grow as tall as they do up north, so I am going to try this method. Thank you!
We have two peach trees in our yard that we've had for 9 plus years. We've never had a single peach! I tried this container method and if they don't chew through it the peach ends up falling off the tree while they attempt to get it. There are oak trees all around the neighborhood what's squirrel nest one being in our backyard. And now our neighbors have peach trees in their yards as well. It's terrible it's so damn hard to grow ANYTHING because of these bastards. I had a greenhouse and they chewed that too. 🤬ING squirrels?
I have my pepper plants indoors and aphids are just starting to increase. The DE after several days have absolutely no effect on aphids on top of leaves. It is also hard to treat the undersides of the leaves since the DE won't stick.
