Hi all,
I have worked for weeks nurturing my little sunflower seedlings, and just put them in the ground the other day. They were doing fine when I checked on them this morning, but when I got home today, it looks like bunnies got through the two-foot fence I put around my garden and ate all the roots off my plants! Does anyone know of a good way to keep these pests out of my garden? I tried red pepper, I don't know if that will work or not.

Thanks!

I don't know how to fix it, but wanted to say that I'm sorry they got eaten.
Thanks for this!

Thank you (((Googley)))...it sucks because I really liked my plants, but it's funny because I lived in the country for years...I move to the city, and I just NOW have problems with things eating my garden? lol

I found an interesting forum that was posting on this very subject...I googled "Keeping bunnies out of garden"....you might be able to find a few more ideas than this one has....but they came up with some pretty good ideas:

Thank you Eskie...I'm just going to plant some from seed to start all over again. Maybe some of them will make it past the bunnies I hate having to start over, because I've had these for weeks. Hopefully early June isn't too late to start them from seed.
