More darning of the fruit cage where mice have chewed their way in. Caught one but he's told his mates of the lovely strawberries to be had. We had already, several years ago reinforced the lower foot with chicken wire, now the squirrels or mice have climbed above the wire to gnaw the plastic. I've now blanked out the lower 18" with fleece on the assumption that if the vermin can't see the fruit they may leave the cage alone. Sounds a bit simplistic but it has worked with rabbits in the past.
