I really haven't had anything discover my figs yet. Birds, squirrels, racoons , nothing seems to know what they are yet. I did have a large racoon rip my grapes apart for the third time. At first a put a net over it and then an electric solar powered fence. I thought it was squirrels. Then I saw the racoon one night sitting on top of the T shaped trellis like a hammock and eating away. They have such thick fur I guess they go right under the fence? Cluster after cluster of grapes on the ground. I then remembered the motion sensor sprinkler option I hadn't tried yet. A Contech brand gets good reviews on Amazon, but a local farmers coop had one by Havahart so I got it. It seems to be working. The racoons come at around 12am or early morning and I haven't had a problem so far. Now I only need something to scare away hurricanes. At least I don't have to deal with these three foot Rats.
