Evil mean devil bunnies are eating my wife's flowers. Again.

Looking for people who have had success with repellents. I'm looking for actual persons who have tried deterrents and have had success. What's worked?

I can Google the subject and I have. I know about pepper spray, garlic spray, predator urine, hair, lavender, natural plants that deter, blood meal, and on and on. Please don't just search and paste an answer... I have a folder of things to try.

Just hoping for some first hand experience.

Putting up a fence or getting a dog or cat is also something I'm trying to avoid. no... I can't shoot them, for those wholl seek the snipers revenge. If I could only get a fox family to move in, id be set.

Help me shoo the evil mean devil bunnies. First hand experience only please.

I have always planted a bulb of garlic with my flowers. The water releases the garlic and the roots absorb it, thus the flowers taste like garlic and the bunnies look elsewhere. Now, for the ones I want to snip and bring in the house, garlic is planted with every other flower so as not to get a garlicy smell in the house.

Well kp, short of a couple good beagle hounds and a good ole double barrel shotgun, I am afraid I am unable to assist you with this problem.
