  I move them over to the long grass near the compost and just make the garden unattractive to them

    Unforch the long grass is right next to the tiny area I have for my pots. I don’t use poisons so chalk, eggshells, beer and the like would frequently be rained away and require constant replenishment

    This is why I didn’t deliberately plant again

      Copper tape.

      Seriously, copper tape. It forms a tiiiny little electric fence. You can also cut rings out of old pots, line them and make mobile fences

        This is sounding like something that costs money or would get procrastinated until it’s never done :(

        My mo is usually to pull them inside at night or put an upturned plastic tub over them at night until they’ve reached a less vulnerable stage
