 Hi Jerry,
Plant a sacrifice crop of lettuces and kale around the perimeter of the area 
you wish to protect. The rabbits come to the edge, find their favorite food, 
settle in to nibble, and leave the rest of your garden alone. This has worked 
well for a friend of mine.   Keeping dogs is another deterrent.

Any suggestions for keeping rabbits out of my garden? After years of having 
no 
problems, they are cleaning me out.  Our dog is an inside dog, so that is not 
an 
option. I put chicken wire around the whole garden tonight so we'll see if 
that 
helps.  I do have a low wire of my electric fence, but they seem so slip 
right 
under it. Any suggestions?  Jerry in southern Indiana
