Understanding the Root of the Problem
Before addressing the rat invasion, it is essential to understand why these pests are attracted to your garden. Rats are typically motivated by their need for warmth and food, making winter a prime time to seek refuge in their outdoor sanctuary. They are attracted to accessible food sources such as trash cans, compost, and standing water.
Protecting Your Garden with Traditional and Natural Methods
While traditional methods such as traps and chemical repellents are commonly used, they may not provide long-term solutions and can pose risks to the environment and pets. Opting for natural alternatives can effectively deter rats without harming them. Consider using tactics such as diffusing essential oils, planting rat-repellent herbs, the plastic bottle trick, or applying elderberry manure to specific areas.
