TULIPS DEER

I got a call from one of my dearest ones saying her tulips vanished overnight. Both of us started to spy the neighborhood believing someone should have stolen the plant. She complained to the Home Owners Association regarding the sudden disappearance of  her plant.

After doing some ground work in the internet we came to know that  Tulips can be easily destroyed by animals like deer, rabbits, mice ect. So safeguarding the plant is as important as planting them. Here are some tips to protect your tulips.

  1. Spraying animal repellent spray.
  2. Protecting  them with chicken wire.
  3. Building some sort of barrier from the animals or pets.
  4. Dipping the bulbs in some kind of repellent before planting
  5. Planting them in a pot and storing indoors.

If the above tips does not work out and still you are in the pain of  those critters still destroying your tulips here is a good idea. Forget tulips think about planting  Daffodils as they are are toxic and unattractive to animals.
