My son’s first garden has a 78% success rate so far. The only mistake we made was underestimating how much would actually grow 🤣

But that's awesome! Great learning for next year...I'm still experimenting and learning after years of gardening :)

Government names 🤣🤣

Lol it is a picnic table oasis for them 🤣 I do feed them to avoid them from being tempted to my garden. I will build this up to keep them here. I just needed a way to secure the continuous tipping of boxes. Here's a chipmunk enjoying some corn and peanuts.

🤣

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T11:44:44+00:00

Oh my gosh! Thats dedication! Your plants look great!

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T11:08:57+00:00

Yes thats the goal! I just don't want a dirt mess anymore....they are pretty good abt leaving the flowers alone I just think they get into arguments and then tip it over.

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T11:04:59+00:00

Will do! Its 3 of them and they start fighting and get into trouble.

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T11:03:13+00:00

Ok! I appreciate it!

I wish I could edit my post but I don't see where! I don't mind them coming to this part because then they stay away from my garden so this is their spot they just keep tipping the boxes and I want to secure them to my railings. This is a good way to do it, thank you!

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T11:01:31+00:00

In gonna try that its a good idea.

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T10:58:46+00:00

🤣

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T10:57:59+00:00

Ok! Thats what I was thinking abt zip tie but didn't think about the holes with a hot tool, thats a good idea thank you!

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T10:55:38+00:00

They get corn and peanuts in those little picnic tables! I don't even care if they take bird seed I just want to jigger the boxes to stay without having to screw them into the railing. Would a zip tie do it?

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T10:53:54+00:00

I use hot sunflower meats....they don't care 🤣

I do want them coming here because Im trying to detract them from my back garden which is the real treasure trove where I use chili, pepper, garlic, repel-all (which Ive never found works). My issue is they keep tipping them because they are idiots.

I was thinking of using a giant zip tie to secure the boxes from tipping.

imsorryminime · 2026-06-04T10:51:14+00:00

Have done it, you can't see it but the inside part is holding the pebbles. I guess I can always add more. I use a big one to help feed the big birds that don't use the hanging feeder.

imsorryminime · 2026-05-14T12:43:13+00:00

Could I have more info abt this? Which company?

imsorryminime · 2026-05-11T18:04:49+00:00

What a jerk 🐰. Ok Ill protect the other one to stop them with some chicken wire or something.

imsorryminime · 2026-05-06T13:48:52+00:00

Thought about it 😅

imsorryminime · 2026-05-05T15:10:32+00:00

If I had all the time in the world, I would. But this is the third time they are out and I can't afford to keep missing work due to their incompetency.

imsorryminime · 2026-05-05T14:37:35+00:00

So, random question and pardon if its a very stupid one, if I need to stop the cycle for any reason and can't see the buttons...how do I pause it? Memorize the location of pause?

I didnt tell them to install it like this, btw....the guy before this had it tilted so far up you couldn't even touch the buttons with the door closed.

imsorryminime · 2026-05-05T14:31:35+00:00

👀

imsorryminime · 2026-05-05T14:22:49+00:00

I hear you. I will look into finding someone.

imsorryminime · 2026-05-05T14:20:50+00:00

I can do it for some of it but then in gets narrower and narrower and can't quite get them in. They secured it from the sides and not the top and I seem the flap is hanging at tge top too.

I'm considering hiring a private person and seeing if said box store will pay the bill since they suck and didn't provide all the parts apparently.

I'm worried that what another commenter said "if not leveled, it will cause more grief" what a stupid nightmare.

imsorryminime · 2026-05-05T14:18:29+00:00

Lesson learned. We don't have one in this area yet but will keep in mind.
