HOW to GET RID of RABBIT
Rabbits are about a foot long and their furs can be gray to brown. They have big ears and fluffy tails. The reason for big ears is that they can hear a lot better incase of danger. Rabbits are most active at dusk and dawn. Rabbits are incredibly smart because they know how to get around fences to get into vegetable gardens. Rabbits eat leafy plants during the growing season and barks of woody plants in the winter.
INSPECTION
Rabbits can be found in bushy hedgerows and edges of wooded areas with dense cover. They can live in lawns, garden, and different types of shrubs that meet their environment requirements.
CONTROL METHOD
Trap:
You can use a trap (Live Animal Trap ) to capture the rabbit alive. The inside of the cage is smooth and it won’t hurt the rabbits at all. The door remains open and you place the bait (i.e. Brussels sprouts, carrots, lettuce, and apple, etc.) so that it will attract the rabbits to the trap. When the rabbit touches the trap, the trap door will close shut automatically. Then you will have to travel about 4 miles away from the house to release it, so it won’t find its way back to the house.

Repellent:
If a rabbit does find its way back to the house then you will have to use a repellent. We suggest that you use a repellent (DR T’S BAT-A-WAY REPELLENT) in a barrier treatment form. A barrier treatment is applying a 2 or more inch-wide band around the area to be protected. You will need to apply the repellent (DR T’S BAT-A-WAY REPELLENT) when you first notice the signs of growth in roses, spring bulbs, flowers or other ornamental. Remember not to apply the repellent (DR T’S BAT-A-WAY REPELLENT) on the plant or on the plant stems. One application of the repellent can last up to 4 weeks to control rabbits, although hot weather and strong winds may require additional applications. The odor will warn the rabbit and the rabbit will go away.

Smoke Bombs:
You can also use the smoke bombs (GIANT DESTROYER SMOKE BOMBS) to scare the rabbits away. You will need to find a tunnel that the rabbits come into the garden from and insert the bomb with the fuse out of the dirt. Then you will need to light the fuse and cover the hole with dirt right away.
