I'm going to try the mesh this Fall. This wasn't the first time you described it to a T, it was a pain.OB.... Mice... got them like acorns...yes almost every year have to take off the air intake on lawn tractor.. and any other machinery left outside... in vehicles I put a 1/4 wire screen in the intake of air cleaner... makes it a pain for them to pass... and one thing I know.... they can't get an acorn thru it... unless they eat it first.
With the lawn tractor they nest under the engine shroud... not about to take that off every time... wow the stink when the engine runs the first hour... sheeessss
BEAR... Never tried corn... seems like they take up more space then worth the output... but I think one year I'd like to try just for the experience... got farm land all around me... plenty of cow corn
A few days ago I walk around the house and start seeing plants starting to punch above the ground leaves from last year.. then yesterday... Bammm... this hosta pops up
