Mowing grass and killing creatures?
I was mowing the lawn yesterday and a darling little frog jumped on my leg…
I feed birds..make frog houses in the gardens…have bird and butterfly baths…I try to be very earth friendly…
Yet now I feel like Charles Manson…crickets, frogs…oh my~~~
Does any one know how I can prevent being a killer…I have to mow the grass…
Or how many “creatures” I am slaughtering on an acre of land…????
baby birds?
We found a baby bird out on the lawn and everytime I threw bread out it’d open it’s beak. I didn’t give it any. There are no trees around, but two adult birds but we can’t tell if they’re the parents because they won’t feed it. It ran across the road so my brother led it over there safely but it tried coming back to our side. W e put it back on the other side and all it does is sit there and chirp chirp chirp. What should I do, the adult birds are gone, i’m afraid it’ll get runover or starve.

Lawn Care : How to Keep Squirrels Off a Bird Feeder
Common techniques for keeping squirrels off of a bird feeder include greasing the bird feeder support pole or wrapping tin foil around the pole. However, these techniques may not work, so just let the squirrel at the bird feeder because it spreads the feed on the ground where the birds can get at it more easily. Learn about suggestions for coping with squirrels eating bird feed in thisfree video on lawn care from a landscaping professional.

Snails in small garden?
I have a very small walled garden containing only lawn. When it rained the other day I noticed thousands of baby snails climbing the walls and on my verandah. How can I get rid of them without putting down any poisons, as I have small birds feeding there daily. Please help. I also notice slugs appearing on the walls at night, but they are not many (yet).
