Hi,

Just protect trunks with hardware cloth or aluminum screening.

Rodents are opportunists. Give them a choice between easy feeding and a barrier, and they choose easy feeding.

Buy or adopt a grey cat. They are supposed to be good hunters. That is why farmers keep "barn cats". They are not pets.

Tom

PS: Do not feed the cat too much. You want a hungry hunter, not fat cat.

So far, I can only do the bait and poison thing where I see trails and
holes,but they continue to multiply and wreck and ruin my trees....hawks are pretty
but they don't touch the population.
