Yeah with the prices of fertilize and stuff this year and not to mention fuel, I think I would pull out the ole boom stick. WE have about 10 acres of sweet corn and there is a squirrel eating some of it, he's gonna get the boom stick ifI see him.. We have about 5 acres of peas and the rabbits havent been too bad yet. however our watermelon patch is getting hit byt the racoons almost every night. Been trying to trap them but I guess they got us figured out. Have to bring my dog and my light one night to geta few of them coons...
