[Growwine] bears and moose

[CanadaVintage]

Glenda,

In our area we treat deer with lead.  It works great.  We also sometimes use an arrow or black powder rifle. 

All kidding aside, I have never had either moose or bear problems.  I would imagine you need to an good electric fence around your perimeter or get your yourself a hunting license.  Both are large animals and do not respond well to deterrents.

  Has anyone had any experiences with bears around the vineyard? I will be planting in an area that has been frequented by bears; do they eat/damage the grapes and vines? What about moose, anyone know if they have a taste for grapes or the vines?

   

  Thanks,
