I should be worried too because I've seen squirrels in my backyard more frequently in recent weeks.

Here's a pic of the glass enclosure for your info. The photo was snapped today... the plants are a bit dry with the hot sun we've had (and low water). I'll find some earlier photos taken of it earlier in the year for comparison later:

I've seen them launch themselves from a running jump. Not to mention jumping off trees, fences or anything nearby.

Total enclosure is 37" wide by 63" long.

all glass??? WOOOW that sure does give it a nice glimour, very classy look to it
i bet the kids love drawin on it haha but it also keeps them out very good idea musta cost a pretty penny unless you got a inside glassman almost 4 feet eh?? how accesible is it?? also did u silicone the seems of fuse?? thickness??
i find glass to much to deal with although all other acrylic or plastic "replace glass" actulally fades over time form the sun AND it scraches form a simple washing very good build Traper

lol.. compared to the plants in my garden.. my vFTs were anciet!
the squirrels will dig in anything loose (they roll in the soil to cool off), and anything hard (to hid nuts, etc in) the only difference is the bigger plants have deep root systems.. so they don't die as easily

thanks,

I've lost over 2/3 of my tomatoes to the devil beasts.
