Rabbit RepellentsI've gathered together all of the rabbit repellent products that have worked in my own or other gardener's yards. If you do decide to trap and relocate the voracious little varmits, here is a valuable hint. Do not touch or bait the trap without using plastic gloves. Rabbits may avoid your trap if they smell human scent. If you should touch the trap, you can hide most of the human scent by spraying the trap with apple cider. As Elmer Fudd so eloquently put it, "That Wascally Wabbit!" |

Rabbit Scram Repellent Rabbit Scram also worked well for me and it is easy to scatter around the plants that get chewed the most. Guaranteed to stop rabbit damage with no foul smell Rabbit Scram rabbit repellent is blended from selected organic and natural components that will not harm animals or the environment. Rabbit Scram is different from other rabbit repellents because it is sniffed off the ground by foraging rabbits before they enter your gardens. Because of its granulated formula Rabbit Scram doesn't wash off in normal rain and will last from 30 to 45 days. |
 Hot Pepper Wax One of the few repellents that you can use directly on veggies. Hot Pepper Wax is a combination of paraffin wax and hot pepper extract that will help to repel aphids, spider mites, thrips, leaf miners, whiteflies, lace bugs, leafhoppers and scale and will even keep some small animal pests at bay. Applied as a foliar spray, Hot Pepper Wax is safe and effective and dries to a flexible, transparent layer. The main ingredient is capsaicin, an extract from cayenne pepper. Can be used on fruits, vegetables, citrus, root crops, legumes, indoor & outdoor ornamentals and grasses. Will not harm foliage, stems, buds, fruits and blooms. |
