Two of my cages were ripped off! Crikies! One was on my porch and the other is missing. I looked all around the house... in the shrubs... in the neighbors yards... it's no where! Seriously, I think they carried it back to the nest as a trophy of their triumph over the planter cages. Or maybe a trophy of my ever dwindling sanity.
But they must have been angry, so they shredded my cuke plants...
I'm so glad that I hadn't given the extra cuke plants away yet.
Sal thinks I should just give up on my veggies. Nope. Ain't gonna happen. I will fight these little freeking monsters with everything I've got.

1) Plant marigolds on the porch
2) Moth balls around the edges of the planter
3) Spraying the plants with a jalapeno water solution - take several jalapenos and water, toss into the blender and liquefy it. strain the water out and dilute a little more with water.
