My horchata project has been screamin’ outdoors so far, but…I need some advice.
I’ve dealt with nearly every pest known to man over the years but this is a first. What kind of rodent climbs 24” into a 35 gallon pot to do this. I’m trying to figure out how to get this MFer out in the next 12 hours before I have no roots.I will take Squirrel for $500.
Lure it out with peanut butter on a mouse trap, right by the hole.
Or you could try to smoke him out.
It will definitely ruin the plants root system quick.
Do you have a game/trail cam? If so, set it up and try to see what it is. Might be good to know what you’re dealing with…
I have this same issue, still unclear what does it but a sprinkle of cayenne pepper on the top of the soil seems to deter them for a little while
Cover the soil with steel mesh?
My PTSD is flaring with this reminder of outdoor pests my guy, but I would also lean squirrel. Possibly rat. The rats on my woodland property look like they go about five pounds. They look like they’ve done a cycle or two of testosterone and are benching about tree fiddy.
Squirrel`s could eat the plant itself.
It’s a squirrel. That’s what they do unfortunately. No pot outdoor is safe at my house.
They say the way to a man’s heart is to nibble on his earlobe.
I think it’s nuts.
If I could find a meme for the caddyshack scene where Bill Murray goes hunting for the gopher and starts dropping bombs on it…
That’s how I would handle this situation
Y’all are the best 
I thought squirrel too but there is no pile around the hole from the digging… it’s like it’s been “bored” into.
Haha, at first I’m like where’s the deisel can or some bleach dammit…wait, wait…take a deep breath, that’s going to kill the plants.
Cheese grate a bar of Irish spring and sprinkle cayenne on it
This will make a very disgusting salad.
Maybe vole or mole? 
1/4 stick or M80 
I’m goin with RAT 
Making a house.
You prefer Borax, we know. 
I would 
Borax fucks up some ants. Make a paste with borax and powdered sugar, smear it on a croutons. I mean a cardboard square.
Get the soil good and moist. Take an old electrical cord and cut off the female end. Split the wires, attach a steel rod to each the positive and negative, then drive em in the soil. Then plug it in! Lol
That was my thought, but do they climb? Or did it chew through the bottom of the fiber container?
