....Some of my plants are being 'sheared off' at ground level. They are NOT being eaten...the tops are just left, laying right there on the ground. My suspects are:
Deer....rabbits...or chipmunks??? Which one is doing this??
Thanks,
Linda

RE: which critter????

Depending on the plant I would also suspect cutworms. Voles are also a possibility. Rabbits are possibilities, too. Deer would eat and chipmunk damage is not all that common. What plants are you having problems with?
