All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

They seemed to work better when moved around regularly. So pulling them up, mowing, and then sticking them back in different spots is probably a good idea.
That's a good point!
Hmm. This might be worth trying. And moving them to mow could work. Thank you!
Assuming they are effective, my only concern then is how they might affect other creatures. I understand that it radiates into the ground, but I'm also worried about things above ground. I'm particularly concerned about birds if it can affect them at all. I wouldn't want to deter them.
