Abstract

The invention involves a fence for repelling plant-damaging animals comprised of a row of tubes each having a top end and bottom end, and at least one chemical-composition-containing tube having at least one exit port; a connector for attaching each tube to each adjacent tube; and a chemical composition repellant to plant-damaging animals, contained within the at least one chemical-composition-containing tube, whereby a repellant character of the chemical composition is releaseable from the at least one chemical-composition-containing tube through the exit port. Another aspect of the invention is a method for repelling plant-damaging animals comprised of the steps of inserting a fence comprised of a plurality of a-rowed, parallel, substantially vertically-oriented tubes flexibly attached with respect to each other, each tube having an open top end and an exit port dispensed with respect to a bottom end communicating with the top end, into the ground such that the top of each tube extends above the ground, thereby enclosing an area to be protected; and inserting a quantity of chemical composition repellant to plant-damaging animals into the top end of at least one tube; whereby a repellant character of the chemical composition can be released from the exit port in order to repel plant-damaging animals.
