This year the deers actually ate my tulips - I was beginning to think this was a kind of dark fairy tale house owners tell to scare each other. I don't mind much - those flowers are leftover from earlier owner, so I neither lost money nor labor on it. Fact is, I'm pondering planting more tulips just for the deers. They're quite nice to have around.

It's the ants I can't stand...

I used to like seeing deer, and then they started destroying my trees and fruit bushes!😡
I'll take little mostly harmless ants any day 😆

Boo for eating trees! My ants are angry biters on the bigger side, and attack when I mow the lawn. I'm gradually reducing lawn space, but the critters have now set up home among my strawberries. We're just not friends..

Blimey, being attacked by ants when cutting the grass! I thought horse and deer flies were bad enough 😂
And strawberries? That's a step too far!
