I mentioned I had used some around my seedling operations. The first time use was not the best. The reaction from the cat killed about 60 seedlings. Some suggested getting rid of this cat. Well in return the cat kills roughly a 5 gal bucket full of mice, moles and chipmunks and keeps the squirels away. For those that say cats don't chew chiles? Maybe yours don't, I have 3 here that will.. L.B.
