I never noticed this before.
Window is too far from the pot to be sure if it's eating them or not....
Is it?

It was.
Now - what can I do about it????

I covered mine with cheap tulle fabric in brown from the fabric store.

I weighted it down with rocks. Lets the sun and rain in but keeps the critters out. So far so good.

This was suggested by someone?? last fall.

FYI Tulle is a fine, often starched net of silk, rayon, or nylon, used especially for veils, tutus, or gowns.

Not sure what all is planted in the pot, but if its only semps, you can also make a chicken wire basket to go over the top.

Only semps ...

Thank you both.

Good luck - let us know if something you try works.

ok

Can you show us before and after photos Critter?

Soon as I'm able to DO something!
May be a few days.....

It will be so helpful to others facing the same problem.

I hope it didn't get all of them (((hugs)))

No, but I've been wondering why they weren't multiplying for me!

Sorry to hear this CG! There seem to be lots of this type of story on ATP lately
Good luck

Thanks.
BTW the squirrel is after the ones in a pot in the BACK and the ones you just sent go in the FRONT.
Squirrels haven't discovered those yet.

Haha, I wasn't (too) worried! Life is life, and one never knows! These plants are all about "letting go" for me - since I don't have to rely on them for any specific need - food or flowers, whatever they give me is a surprise!
So when I sent yours out, I think especially since they were mostly rescued NOIDs I just feel that where ever and however they end up is great!! And, even though I don't love squirrels, I can appreciate that they want a nice treat just like anyone else! Semps are their "chocolate"

Actually semps are not a food of choice for squirrels or deer. They only seem to eat them when there isn't enough of their normal food available.

My stupid squirrels eat hot peppers, but are afraid of sunflower heads...go figure

They do sound pretty stupid!

Greg, we have similar attitudes!

I thought we may!!
