Weeping Mulberry/Squirrels

[Bonsaitree]

In the winter, the squirrels chew off the bark on the tops of the branch's where they arch over on my Weeping Mulberry. Any ideas on how to prevent this.

Pepper spray? I used to use a product called ro-pel but I hav'ent seen that in years. Use the search function, I've seen several posts about this.

A pellet gun works wonders...

another product isa cheww-stop. or you can blend some chili powder in a blender and brush it on. or feed the squirrels something else somewhere else.

Sacraficial plantings to divert attention from the tree or feed them something tastier than the carbs they're finding in the Mulberry bark...

I hear they find salted rope quite a treat though you may have to find a tall tree to leave the rope in... Salt from ones hands is the best for this purpose...
