Default Are fairies a pest in the garden or is it just the gnomes or wildlife or

whatever yer? I put my fairy traps out, but I'm still waiting........
I know the fairies appear through the portal but the location of this keeps changing. I will have them for breakfast one of these ere days...
I know Lizzy they are in my giant Norwegian spruce somewhere and they keep poking fun out of me, the feckers!
AM I THE ONLY ONE HERE WHO LIKES TROLLS?

take in the traps. DO NOT P**S OFF THE FAIRIES! Bad idea. Distract them with shiny things on the edges of the garden-some glass marbles under an oak tree will occupy them for decades. Some ginger bread now and then will make them your BFF.

For wildlife, it all depends on what's nibbling the plants. Old CD's, or disposable aluminum pans on a string will sparkle and shoe away crows and other birds.

You can buy little slug traps (load with stale beer) for cheap. To keep away deer, woodchucks, and other furry things, try dog hair clippings, or coyote or bobcat urine powder (no joke, someone makes money selling coyote tinkle!)

Good luck!
