for me touch wood that i do not faced the squirrels and rats problems cos i have my cats near my little garden.....however i have snails problem attacking my orchids and hope that they dont change their taste bud to cps. the other problem that i am facing monkeys and monitor lizards.....they will climb and ran on my shed and knock off a pot or two and broke a few flower stems and shoots. the monkeys will drop 'mangos' plucked from nearby trees and land on the pots of plants that located below the mango tree branches or they simply roll them off the roof's rain gutter. monitor lizards will search for food and crawl in between the pots and their pot belly knock off pots from the shelves. therefore if you cannot deter them from terrorizing your garden and plants, 'cage' your collection as what jixxxs suggested. i did that to my sarrs since i cannot hang them under my "plants pergola"
