rabbits.... and my flowers(to be...)

LithiumKid1976

hi
im looking for advice on how to stop rabbits eating my flower bed.
i created it recently, its about 6ft x 6ft and has a lot of flowers planted in it.

every few hours they are out there digging in it, and while i like to see them in the back garden, i dont like to see them digging at it!

so, i dont own a gun to shoot them, and dont want too either, but am looking for advice on how to keep them away from the flowers.
a fence would probably do it, but its only a small bed,would it be overkill to do that... ?

Mr.Applepie

you need to snare the rabbit and then .... http://www.greatfood.ie/item_display.asp?cde=2&id=907

Switch to growing plants they don't like:D

There is no easy way -- rabbits and your flowers won't mix.
As planetX says, switch to non rabbit friendly plants.
To keep them out a fence needs to be continuous and buried at least 10cm or so into the ground, with the bottom part twisted outwards so that when they dig they encounter the wire.
A small terrier/ferret/or similar would be very effective too.

Rabbits are a nuisance in a garden. You will have to decide which you want: bugs bunny or floral beauties
