I think the purpose of the forum is to garden for desirable wildlife.
That would be butterflies, native song birds, lady bugs, native reptiles and amphibians, non-venomous snakes ect. Some people like to attract deer, turkey or rabbits or feed squirrels.
But really, who in their right mind would 'garden' purposely to attract venomous snakes, rats, fleas, ticks, moles, racoons (which are destructive and can sometimes carry disease), japanese beetles, poison spiders... oh, yes, I can't wait for this wildlife to invade my back yard!
