⚠️EMERGENCY⚠️  
So today I went to go water my plants and the squirrels are eating all of my sprouts. 2 of them have missing tops and the other one is completely gone. I’ve been struggling with them for a while and I desperately need help. Does anyone have any advice for home recipes for repellent or anything?! I need help anything will do,

Pellet gun

I have so many of them eating my dogs food

Also a good idea. My friend said that’s the best solution because it’s only one squirrel continuously eating the plants.

Use pepper mint essential oil and mix it with water
