A plant pundit comments on plants, the foibles and fun of academic life, and other things of interest.

Our squirrels are creative gardeners, at least. Crocus, Erythronium, Trillium, and bulbous Iris, even Colchicum (apparently not giving the little beasts heart attacks) appear in unlikely and sometimes inspired spots. So if this ride gives them a thrill, maybe they've earned it.
A bit late, but a suggestion: take red pepper flakes and boil them in water...strain out the pepper bits and put the peppered water in a sprayer...spray what you want the squirrels to leave alone.
After a few nibbles, they'll take the hint.
...........They used to sell bird seed with pepper in it (The birds either can't taste the pepper or they like it), but the ASPCA complained....so I make my own... ;)
