Sorry you had such a disaster with planting the fall garden and having it all eaten up. I can relate to crap happening that's for sure. I would say a huge yes to some barn cats for sure.
Any time you move to a new area there is a learning curve, even if you are an experienced gardener. I would use rat poison before moth balls. Moth balls are pretty toxic to the environment. Cats is probably the best option. By the way, I was all against using rat poison until one ran across my foot in the horse barn. Hate something that is faster than I am. It would help to keep the grass around the garden mowed short. That way owls and hawks can see them better. But I am terrible at keeping the grass around the garden short, so not judging. I had a couple of years of total failures the first couple of years at a new place. Finally figuring out how to grow in a heavy rainfall area.
Thank you so much for the encouragement! I do know that I had a set up that worked before I moved, and I will find that grove again. It can just be frustrating sometimes. I have heard that about rat poison that it really is not very harmful to the environment and is a blood thinner humans take, it just affects rats more extremely. Thanks for that idea! As for the grass, you are completely right. That would probably help A-LOT!
@@StillWatersRanch We had a dog get sick right after we set out rat poison, in the tack room where nothing but the rats could get to it. Took him to the vet and he said unless the dog directly ate the rat poison, it would not hurt him. We were afraid that he ate a rat that had eaten the poison. Vet said it would be highly unlikely a big dog, (doberman) would get sick eating a rat that had been poisoned. The rat poison today is much milder than in the past. Dog got better, he just had a cold.

I know! Sometimes it happens so fast, I don’t have time to react! I am replanting this weekend though, so let’s see how that goes:)
@@StillWatersRanch Great. I look forward to following along 🙂
