6. Feed them something else

Invaders keep coming to your garden because they’re hungry, and they want to have a feast on your plants, veggies, and shrubs. What can you do if they’re tasty and delicious? If you can’t keep wild animals away but still don’t want them to eat all the things in your garden, you could feed them something else.

For instance, if you know that there are many squirrels that attack your garden out of hunger, you can put some peanuts in a small tray next to the plants that they typically destroy. Or you can put some bird seeds on a bird feeder, and other small animals could enjoy a snack without eating or destroying all of your hard work.
