WELL, I have had lots of rabbit problems in the past. The only thing i have found that is tottaly concrete is going around the garden with chicken wire. I now raise rabbits and i love it. Still have a few problems with wild ones so i try to plant stuff they dont like outside of my main garden plot, so i dont have to fence it. Other wise you can set a kill trap(which i dont like). They seem to be to smart for a live trap.

I've heard that planting garlic helps. If you don't mind the smell...

Garlic planting doesn't work. I have my garlic patch right next the the bush beans. The garlic doesn't get touched, but the bush beans got mowed down.

I'm having the same problem. At least we think it's rabbit(s). There are muskrats and woodchucks on the property as well, but we see the rabbit regularly, and they're known garden culprits. We put in a dandy deer fence, but didn't forsee the rabbit problem! They chew through the plastic around the bottom. I guess we should go for the chicken wire solution. It's a 60 x 12 garden, so it will be a big job, but the sight of more and more crops gone every day is so discouraging! I'm thankful the peppers, tomatoes and dahlias haven't been touched yet, but I suppose they might follow.

Rabbit wire, Home Depot carries it here, works great. It has a tighter mesh at the bottom and a larger mesh at the top. I make rings, 30-36" dia., and place them over the crops the bunnies like: collard, broccoli, kale, etc. and legumes. The rings can be removed from the cole crops when they get large. The rings last many years and can do other jobs such as compost rings, supports for cucumbers, etc. when not doing bunny protection. I now know to plant in a pattern that the rings can cover. Good luck!

Chicken wire works well, but make sure to bend it so that you have 12" of chicken wire sticking out from the bottom of the fence, and lay mulch on it. Now if a critter (say- a @#$% groundhog) tries to dig under- they hit chicken wire.

This solved many pest problems for me.

Does Coleus Cannina work on rabbits?

Make sure you dig a 12" trench around your gardens peremiter to bury the wire in or Mr wascally wabbit can and often will dig under. I planted a small seperate patch of mixed green, wax, and lima beans, and the rabbits can eat off that one. Of course, I also hunt, and the Daisy 880 will drop mr wabbit like a rock. Rabbits eating off of gardens are mighty tasty too! Iffen ya do kill one, scatter the blood around the perimeter as well, it helps ward off further invasions. Good Luck RootDoc

A good sloid fence is the only way to keep those critters out of your garden, anything else just keeps on costing money and is not really reliable. Tight mesh fencing like chicken with is needed since those buggers will squeeze through anything with much larger mesh.

I put up split rail fence and stapled deer netting along the entire length and burried the bottom 6 in mulch. The deer netting wat 7ft so I doubled it over. He managed one break in in 3 weeks and I plugged that hole. A .22 works too.
