Ok, I'm not entirely sure where to post this, so I put it here for now.
I am seeing up several tub ponds in my bank yard for the summer. We frequently allow our two dogs to roam the back yard. I put some of my plants in the tubs today and in no time, the dogs ate 3 of them. Obviously, this is not acceptable.
I read an article that said if you spray the plants with a water and cayenne pepper solution, it will deter the dogs from eating the plants. I found a subsequent article that points out that there is cayenne pepper in some fish foods. Does anyone think it would be a problem for the fish that will be in the ponds to spray the plants with cayenne, with the likelihood that it will eventually wash its way into the pond?
Sorry for the long story. Thanks.
