In this book I am checking out it says sprinkling pepper around hedges and flowers keeps dogs, cats, racoons and other pests out. This will also repel ants sprinkle in cracks and crevices.

Hmmmm-wonder if it would keep squirrels and chipmunks out of my garden!

Just regular pepper or hot pepper flakes?

I've read somewhere about using hot red pepper flakes. Maybe I should try black pepper....

The song of the birds for mirth,--

Than anywhere else on earth.
