Howdy Chilliheads,
I have this pesky little mouse that seems to take great joy in trying to destroy my Pepper plants.
I grow in pots and he has been removing the soil from the containers. Seems to be going up the drainage holes in the bottom and removing most of the soil. The plant goes into shock and if you touch the top soil it all falls in because there is no soil left underneath.
I have a dog, so is very hard to use mouse traps. I am using some traps that are safe for dogs, but the mouse does not seem to want the cheese or bacon I have put in there.
I have been growing for years and never seen this before.
Has anyone ever seen this and are there any suggestions on removing this pesky critter?
Cheers,
Micca
