When I purchased armadillo deterrent, the active ingredient mentioned was castor oil... unfortunately, it was useless.

I've found that simply dropping castor seeds in the tunnels (of those burrowing pests) is effective... unfortunately, those are getting harder and harder to find.

One year, I was drying seeds on window screens, and rats or mice or something discovered a food source.... a few castor beans solved the prob.

I'm of mixed feelings about the wire remedy, as it's my understanding that the galvanized metal is toxic?

really don't want to poison my food....
