Anyone ever have a problem (or a solution) to rogue squirrels
1) Great Danes.
2) Box traps baited with sunflower seed.
3) Split plastic buckets and put them around fruit tree trunks about 3 feet from the ground.
4) Remove overhanging branches from surrounding trees.

gotta fight the stupid Japanese beetles
I've pretty much wiped them out over here. Those hanging traps with the pheromone bait discs work really well but take serious maintenance. I had to empty them twice a day the first year (into a bucket with soapy water and spray a couple seconds of Black Flag into the bucket each time before slamming on the lid). Take them down when expecting rain. Hose out the bags after emptying every so often. I emptied many many buckets of them on the driveway, so many they smelled like a rotting corpse.
Since the pheromone is a sex lure, it breaks their reproduction cycle. Next year you have only a few. Year later only 1 or 2 show up in the stock water tank. Wish they made them for junebugs.......

How the bloody hell does a guy put up over a hundred tomato plants of tomatoes without a canning plant and a dozen seasonal workers?
