Bear sightings occur most in August into the fall; and for gardeners planting an array of fruits, herbs and greenery, this could mean saying goodbye to fresh gardening goods.
These are the top plants that bears are attracted to in gardens. Prepare to see bear damage:
Blueberry | Raspberry | Elderberry |
Cherries | Strawberry | Sorrel |
Cow Parsnip | Gooseberry | Honeysuckle |
Rid bears from gardens with electric fencing, the most effective means for bear control. Plastic, and some metal fencing, simply isn't strong enough to stop bear damage in gardens.
