Question by Fray: Can starting a vegetable garden attract vermin?
My sister and I are planning on planting a small vegetable garden in our yard, so far we know what to do to get rid of grass and such. But we're worried about attracting vermin, we have a lot of mice and possum in the the summer as well as birds. The city just shut down it's program for keeping the city free of rats and mice... and we just got rid of an infestation of mice in our house. Would this be inviting the vermin into our yard and possibly our house?

Rabbits are the only thing that messes with my garden. I've never heard of anybody concerned about mice because of gardening. That would be new to me.
