What do I do with the rat in my garden?

December 1st, 2010 8 comments

I have seen a rat living in my garden, hes been living under the shed for about a month and he was attracted by my bird feeders which I have now removed. I do not want to kill it, I don’t see any need to, our house is detached and there are no children or bins or broken drainage or anything for it to climb into or destroy. The problem is, I was hoping it would disappear when the food was gone but I now see it climbing into the hedge and eating the berries, so it clearly doesn’t want to move on. There is only 1 rat and as long as others don’t come I wonder if it is ok just to ignore it? Or should I consider buying a humane trap and let it go in the woodlands? Serious answers would be helpful and remember I do not want to kill it. Thank you

Japanese garden ruined by neighbors tree.?

September 5th, 2010 5 comments

I created a Japanese garden with fountains, lanterns, bridges and fine gravel. I even combed the gravel and rock to give it that zen quality. However, my neighbor has this shit bag tree that sheds leaves all over it; but, even worse it has these weird nut berries that created a huge mess when they burst on the ground. How can I protect my garden that I worked so hard on? Is there a shade to cover it?
