I've also used the stucco screens to make cages around potted plants like tomatoes, by taking two 8' pieces & making a square "U" shape, then they fit together to make a rectangle box, with the whole plant pot & all in the cage, that can be zipped tied. When I need to get at the plant I cut the zip ties (cheap Harbor Freight) & remove the top "U" & when done replace the zip ties with new ones; $1.99 with coupon.

The boxes kept all animals out of my produce, including deer.

AR, Thanks for the tip, I'll look at the hardware cloth, I've had success building cages around bulbs using stucco screen, too tight for them to get through, I just leave a hole for the stem to come through & bury the whole thing.

2 years ago one was eating the Tulip flowers just before blooming, had to cove each plant with little chicken wire cages; that's when I started getting pi$$ed & eliminating the worst offenders.

It varies year to year depending on other food sources, but man one of them knows me & avoids all traps.

Weird, much more on this topic and we'll need bumper stickers.
Maybe this year's jar collection of those dang scary scorpions I've been erradicating. No snakes but one baby one a couple months ago 🐍.

Nobody likes being accused of being a bigot. These kind of things that go on in the wet markets and the dog meat festivals where they torture the dogs to death would be just as bad anywhere else in the world. I would feel no differently about it if this were going on in England.

Between*s-- Well stated!

Quakes🦊, In my opinion, the people that try to see racism in every comment, are racist.

Don't eat our friends

Do we have the "PC" police here?

Not that I really watch the show, but there is a character on South Park known as "PC Principal".

A wet market is just a market in which they may butcher the animal there instead of selling meats that were butchered prior to the sale or display. Most wet markets do not trade in exotic animals and stick to your traditional meats. Though, keep in mind, in some parts of the world, things like ostrich and camel are considered normal to eat.

D/P Ace 36, who made you the racist police. You have no place telling others what they can say. That's what the moderators are for and last I heard you are not one of them. You sound like a crazy leftist.
