Porcupine attack

Post by yawer »

Dear

Porcupine or probably also called hedgehog has made into my land and recently eaten the barks of pine and Diyar trees. Although it has not harmed so far other fruit trees but has anyone knowledge how to get rid of this issue. I can put some poison or repellant where it has made its burrow for living but not sure what to try ?

thanks in advance for any suggestion

Porcupine poison is available in agriculture chemical stores. Its quite hazardous, handle with care. insert some grains in root vegetables such as potatoes.....and place where you think they come/cross
