Tree shrew problem

[jimmy0123]

Did anyone have the problem of tree shrew biting off the nep pitcher? I've been getting this problem and my nep hvnt been producing fully developed pitcher for months . They like to target my N. maxima the most but less in N rafflesiana and N alata. I hag them up but they seem to manage to climb up to the pots and then bye bye to my pitcher. Have any suggestion to solve this problem? Getting really frustrated .

Rat cage?

It didnt work i try a few times. Furthermore i dont know what to do after catching it either kill (cant do it i too soft lol) or release it (might come back??). I was hopping like some home remedies or some chemical that can prevent them from coming.... Any suggestion?

I think funkychips faced the same problems like yours... I mostly have rats chewing on my pitchers...

I got prob with rodden, they love the typical n. rafflesiana, they didn't chew off the whole thing, but rather break a part of it...you can try some banana with rat poison, but for long term might not work
