A thicker and longer wire (cut up coat hanger) would work better and it may even help it stay down during the frost heaving you experience on the East coast. I use a spool of wire I picked up at my local hardware store. It also helps keep them in place when the squirrels are digging under and around them.

Right now I am having a problem with MOLES. Now I'm finding the moles are digging under my Iris gardens - which is something they never did before, infact, I didn't even know I had moles in my area until a neighbor pointed it out. I thought all the holes in my hard were from squirrels. Nope it's moles, and there are huge mounds of soil in my Iris gardens.
