As mentioned in the last blog, Bugs Bunny and or Brer Rabbit have been munching on the corn and beans in the garden. Since putting human hair in the rows from a beauty shop, there have been no further depredations, but why take chances? Hot chili peppers and garlic should be a tasty treat; but rabbits supposedly don’t like them.
The peppers and garlic are placed in the blender with a little cheap vegetable oil. They are whirred until they are as pulverized as they will get. There will still be some chunks. This is all poured into a 2 gallon container. A couple of squirts of dish soap are added and the container is filled as full with water as the soap suds will allow. After it is settled some it is strained into a 1 gallon sprayer through a fine screen. Enough should be used to bring the container to ½ of the fill line. Finish the fill with water.
This worked well last year with habanero peppers. No habaneros were available this year so hot chili’s were used. We will see.
