Sounds like a great product Polly. Other than Liatris and some Tulips the cottontails seem to like the weeds more than anything. The chipmunks however are another story entirely. Holes in the lawn by the little ones I don't mind, but they've gotten into way too many beds that are finally starting to look acceptable. Downeast grown fox pee works for too short a time so I've reverted to old school. Not a happy solution but they were way too persistent.

My biggest problem now is mites I think. Little red buggers, "spider" webs and curled leaves (one the perennials), dead growth on the conifers. Many of the Mugo, Alberta Spruce and Viburnum have taken a beating. I've sprayed as much as I could with a systemic but I think they're present in just too many places. Anyone have any ideas?
