Organic Treatment

One of the best ways to control rabbits in the garden is to have pets, dogs and cats. They are good at keeping rabbits at bay.
Other methods are to protect the young plants until they are old enough. Greenhouses are good for year round protection if they are bad enough.
A cleaver way to control their eating in your garden is to provide food for them so that they will have enough and not look for more. Feed them away from your garden. There is a balance to this method in that you can't feed all of the rabbits in your area! In other words you can expect there to be some damage from rabbits and other creatures. A good fence works against rabbits and other ground creatures. Be creative in providing protection.
Avoid using poison on them as this is a bad idea.
Rabbits often don't like new smells so a strong order will keep them away. Try Garlic, blood meal, rotten eggs, ammonia or even applying cayenne pepper around the garden will help. Remember that this has to be done regularly since the cayenne pepper is degraded by the sun. Try MO Hotta Mo Betta Catalog for a good source of hot chills to try.
