The wooded suburbs of Northern Rhode Island are home to persistent rabbits that target residential landscapes. With rabbit control in Northern Rhode Island, ohDEER uses all-natural solutions to help reduce damage and deter feeding.
In Northern Rhode Island, rabbits are a primary threat to foundation plantings and flower bed borders. They often nest in the woodlots or under porches common in the Blackstone Valley, staying just steps away from your Arborvitae and Wintercreeper. Rabbits are incredibly stubborn about targeting tender new growth and will strip bark from young trees all winter long.
These small pests can devastate a Rhode Island garden before you even notice they are there. Their sharp teeth clip Tulips and Hostas clean at the ground level, often destroying a season’s growth in hours. Because rabbit feeding is so rapid and severe, proactive Rabbit Control is vital for protecting your Northern RI landscape. When you choose ohDEER, you are working with experts who understand local Rhode Island wildlife patterns.
When you choose ohDEER, you’re choosing:
If you’re not sure whether the damage you’re seeing was caused by rabbits or deer, the signs can be subtle. Feeding height, bite patterns, and leftover plant material all tell a story.
Small garden beds or suburban yards? Our Spring/Summer Control may be all you need.
Larger landscapes, heavy traffic, or year-round browsing? Annual Control is your safest bet for continuous protection. Here’s how ohDEER protects your landscape from rabbits throughout the year.
ohDEER’s Rabbit Spring/Summer treatment protects your perennials and budding flowers throughout the spring and summer.
We apply an all-natural deterrent that keeps rabbits from clipping blooms, stems, and new plant growth.
Every three weeks, spring–summer
Fall/Winter Control helps deter rabbits during months when natural food sources run low and browsing activity increases.
This program will keep rabbits away from your winter garden and beautiful shrubs during the colder months.
Every three weeks, fall–winter
Rabbits don’t follow a calendar — and often browse more through mild winters.
Annual Control provides uninterrupted protection for your landscape, combining all Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter applications into a single, year-round plan for the best protection.
Every three weeks, year-round
Our Northern Rhode Island eco-friendly Rabbit Control uses botanical deterrents to make your yard unappealing to the local population. The spray is harmless but creates an offensive scent and taste barrier that encourages rabbits to feed elsewhere.
We apply a botanical solution directly to susceptible stems and leaves. Think of it like dipping a child’s pacifier in vinegar—totally harmless, but extremely unpleasant to the Rhode Island rabbit population.
We don’t believe in hiding behind hard-to-pronounce chemicals — or using them in our products!.
Deer and rabbits feed at different heights. Deer Control helps protect higher foliage, while Rabbit Control focuses on preventing low-level stem and bark damage. Together, they provide more complete, natural protection for your landscape.
No. We use plant-safe, natural products, applied by trained technicians exactly where rabbits feed. Your plants will stay protected and thriving.
Most customers notice reduced rabbit damage within a few weeks of our first application and see even better results after multiple Rabbit Control applications every three weeks.
You can try a DIY rabbit repellent, but results vary. Effective Rabbit Control requires precise product placement, timing, and frequency. Our technicians adjust applications for weather, irrigation, and plant growth so your rabbit protection stays reliable and natural.
Yes, rabbits stay active all year. In winter, they often chew bark and lower stems, especially when lush greens and perennials are scarce. As snow builds up, rabbits can actually stand on top of it and reach higher bark and stems. Consistent, year-round Rabbit Control is the best way to protect your plants and shrubs from rabbit damage.
Light nibbling can still happen after our rabbit control solution is applied. The goal is to prevent serious or repeated rabbit damage by keeping a consistent layer of protection on your plants. Over time, this reduced feeding will help your plants stay healthy and will allow them to grow.
Cottontail rabbits can have up to 7 litters per year, with each litter containing up to 12 babies. Once you find one rabbit in your yard, they multiply fast!
