Tree rats. They eat my figs before the figs can get ripe.
Eddie? I was serious when I asked for help in getting rid of them, and this is what I get?
This is what I use to keep them out of my fig tree and in the stew pot.

What do y'all do with the figs? Preserves?
Well, it is all out war now! The critters have bitten through the line that holds the cd where I tie it around the trunk of the tree. They did it to all except for one. That means they did it to 6 out of the seven I deployed in one night. They also put up a nest in the tree that had 2 cds hanging from it. They don't go after the CD but follow the line down to where it is tied around the trunk. I think maybe steel cable is the next step if I can do this without too much trouble. I'm absolutely sure it was the squirrels as all the evidence points that way given the number of countermeasures that were attacked in one night and the fact that they built a nest in the same night. I do believe that they do not like the reflections from the cds.
