Be Vewy Quiet, I'm Spwaying Tabasco Sauce

According to Reuters (seen via Clayton Cramer):

Dutch farmers have devised a hot and spicy way to stop rabbits and rodents from munching their lettuce, carrots and wheat.

Spraying fields with the American sauce Tabasco sends the rabbits "three feet in the air" with shock and running for cover, said a spokesman for a local agriculture cooperative.

My cat used to steal food from the table until she ate a peppercorn. She stopped for a few months after that.

Maybe I should put another peppercorn on the table.
