Granular All-Purpose Animal Repellent

We use brie to keep rodents and especially ground hogs away from our flower and vegetables gardens and plants. I accidentally discovered that if I use this under security cameras, I am not needing to sweep spider webs off them nearly as often as I used to. The spiders build webs on the cams because the night vision attracts bugs. Results are pending how much rain you get vs how much product you put on the ground under them and product life vs rain.

I used this product to repel rabbits and squirrels. It did neither. The rabbits still ate my sunflower seedlings after spreading this stuff liberally around them. I have a small garden with chicken wire around it that is four feet tall. The squirrels like to go in and dig around to hide food there. This product was once again spread liberally around the perimeter of the fence. Repeatedly. Same result. They still went in there and did damage to some of my plants. The product label says lasts up to four weeks. That's absolutely false. This product is available in a spray bottle and it claims to not harm plants. That product made the leaves of my sunflower plants turn brown.

We just bought a new house in a new state and I quickly noticed that people walking their dogs were letting their dogs do their business along the edge of our yard. Yeah, no. Not cool. I bought this, sprinkled it every few days along the road edge of the lawn, and it seems to have broken them of the habit. It smells quite strong, so I am sure it repelled the dogs, but I like to think it repelled their rude humans who were letting them do their business in my yard. Haha.

This stuff smells like garlic pizza. It does keep critters away, but you have to use it more than once. If it rains, I would reapply. I make a circle around my plants with it. I use it for squirrels, rabbits and chipmunks.

While it requires application twice a month initially, it’s straightforward to use, and the granules spread evenly around my yard and garden. The repellent has been highly effective in keeping animals like deer and rabbits away. I also appreciate that it’s rain-resistant, so I don’t have to reapply constantly after the initial period.

I've only used it twice and now squirrels leave my garden alone. Love it.

We've been having an issue with squirrels digging in our garden. I put a ton of this stuff down both under and on top of the mulch. It rained after a day and rendered this stuff useless. I'm not sure if it would have worked had it not rained, but ya know, it rains outside.

It honestly does not smell that bad. I don't understand why people are freaking out. To me it smells like a blend of cayenne pepper and black pepper.
