Where I live the spring bulb season is over and daylilies and gladiolus are in bloom. So I am thinking of fall and something I am going to need to do that I have never had to do in my 40+ years of gardening. If I am going to have crocuses and hyacinths next year, I think I am going to need to be proactive and do something to make sure voles can't eat them up. I read an article somewhere that said you could use crushed oyster shells in the hole you dig before dropping the bulb in. Have any of you done this before or do you have some other method that you use that works? I have never had voles before but they decided to attack this year so I don't want to chance it for next year.
