**Here is the recipe for the "5-5-5 surefire animal deterrent" according to a gardening authority on the Lynette Jennings Home Show. It is supposed to keep away all kinds of wild animals, like deer, rabbit, etc. from your garden. Break 5 raw eggs into a one gallon container, including the shells. Add 5 oz. of Tabasco Sauce, fill container with water, and let stand 5 days to ferment (preferably in the garage). Strain and spray around the perimeter of your garden. Repeat if necessary.
