I have two juvenile sulcata's that are just realizing everything in the yard is an edible arrangement. I don't mind that for some things but they are starting to destroy a few plants that I'd like to keep alive. I've set block barriers around a few plants to keep them from eating them, that has worked. However I was wondering, since smell is such a big thing for tortoises, if I would spray them with a scent would they not eat the plant? My initial thoughts are red pepper flakes, fish emulsion, garlic? Has anybody tried anything like this to get the tortoises to avoid eating plants.
