I have rabbits!!!!!!!!! Happy Easter? NOT!!!! They eat crocus blossoms! They shred crocus blossoms! Grrrrrrrrrrr!!! There was a little cluster of lavender blossoms that I was going to photograph but half of it was wrecked. One year the deer ate them. They do a clean snip and leave their tracks in the soil. The whole top of the crocus is completely gone. The rabbits don't eat the whole thing. They shred the blossoms and leave most of the bits and pieces on the ground. I have a board which is normally left in my hosta bed that is scented with coyote urine. (That stuff is sold in 8 oz. bottles.) It keeps the deer away. I put it out by the crocus bed last night. Hope it works for rabbits.

That's interesting. A mouth full of soap wouldn't be pleasant for anyone. A test trial would be needed to determine the effect on a blossom.
I have asked my brother for several small pieces of wood. They can be scented with the coyote urine and distributed in the azalea beds and the hosta and crocus beds. This definitely works for deer. It might work for the rabbits but I'm not 100% sure.
