Rabbits Eating Plants: Live Trap with Newspaper Tunnel

Simple, Effective Trap

Cage trap (Havahart).
Wrap top, sides, bottom with newspaper to form dark tunnel.
No bait needed—rabbits love tunnels.
Place in run; release in park with other rabbits.

Why Pepper Failed

Repellents wash off; rabbits adapt. Physical removal works.
