Q. I believe a bunny is eating my flowering annuals. Do they even eat flowers? What can I do?

A. Bunnies have become a huge problem here on Cape Cod in the past two years. Around here, bunnies are eating just about everything, even things they are not supposed to like! Young bunnies will try anything, annual flowers included. Our customers have had great luck this year with Rabbit Scram, which is an organic granular product made from dried blood, garlic, white pepper and cloves. It is sprinkled on the ground in an 18″ wide strip either around an individual plant or an entire garden area. Most people find that using a combination of different products works best … switch up what you use every couple of weeks so they don’t get used to one thing.
Good luck!
