Well, this is an odd thing. My daughters family does huge outdoor lights and Christmas display. Rabbits have chewed on some of the light wires!! Chewed thru!

Any ideas on natural things that might deter the bunnies? They had less trouble with their garden for Pete's sake, lol!!

Any ideas would be helpful!!

Thanks,
Linda

Buy some semi-flexible plastic tubing, cut a long slit all along the top, then slip it over the wires. The rabbits will be deterred by trying to chew through the plastic.

grind up some HOT dryed chili peppers, soak in hot water, add said liquid to spray bottle, and spray on all exposed wires, you may need to keep repeting, due to rain snow etc, but bunnies senstive nosed, they will not chew...

Will share this! Thank you both for great tips!! Using then both may definitely be a deal breaker for the bunnies!
