Culinary herbs such as mint, thyme, tarragon, oregano, dill and chives also can be planted throughout the garden. • Predator urine is an effective (albeit stinky) "danger" scent to keep deer away. This can be purchased commercially or perhaps obtained from zoos. • Spray-on odor repellents bought at nurseries and big-box stores may work but often need to be reapplied after rain and may actually keep humans from enjoying their own garden. They stink. • Some not-so-awful smells that keep deer away include mint oils (often combined with pepper and garlic), cloves and cinnamon, and citrus. Voles: Don't confuse moles and voles. Moles are mostly blind, have big front claws and eat grubs and earthworms in lawns. They never eat plants, but their tunnels make lawns dumpy and bumpy, and sometimes munching on the grubs destroys your lawn's roots. Voles, which look like mice with long snouts, love munching on plants. They consider tulip bulbs and hosta roots to be a culinary highlight of the feast. • Castor-oil repellent products from your local nursery may drive both moles and voles away. • Malinich recommends spring-loaded traps or spear traps. The moles or voles spring the trap, are killed by the spear, and when you pull it out of the ground, it leaves the body, already buried. • Wire mesh placed over the garden spot allows plants to grow but prevents voles from pushing up through holes to eat away. • When you are planting bulbs in the fall, place mesh over the top or around the bulb. It allows the bulb to grow but keeps voles from eating the bulb itself. Rabbits: Remember Peter Rabbit? Remember that he was actually a vegetable-garden goodies thief? 'Nuf said.

Bury it a few inches to make it even more effective. • Placing bags of hair and spraying fox urine (found in nurseries) deter rabbit roaming. • Sprinkling vinegar or hot pepper flakes, as well as liquid chile sprays, have had some reported success, but not all the reports are positive. One Internet gardener suggested soaking corn cobs in vinegar for five minutes (a procedure you repeat every two or three weeks) and then placing them throughout the plot. Final words: Malinich said squirrels and chipmunks do not pose that big of a threat to gardens, except perhaps the chipmunks destroying roots with their digging. Squirrels go after fruit on fruit trees, but fighting them, from my own experience, is a losing battle. It is outdoors, after all, and short of putting electrified wiring around the trunk and on nearby trees, the squirrels are going to find a way to get to the fruit. On the positive side, however, there is usually more than enough fruit on the trees for both humans and animals. Malinich also suggested being mindful of animals' habitats. If you don't want mice invading your garden, make sure you don't have tall grasses, high weeds or brush piles nearby.
