Deer are my biggest challenge year round.
This year, I have tons of gypsy moth caterpillars. They are earlier than last year. They completely defoliated the oak trees last year. And annoyed my little dog, Winston the pug, to no end. he gets very upset when caterpillars drop from the sky! It is really creepy....literally.
We have many more bunnies in the neighborhood than we did last year. I suspect that is because we have less feral cats.
