I think the nearest equivalent to this great Latin phrase 'in flagrante delicto' would be red-handed, but since she doesn't have hands, I'd say she was caught black-mouthed.

BetR2 commented that her Lucy would make short work of this barrier. I should have listened, lol. I guess Penny just pushed her way through my little fence, by the look of the skew-whiff way the bamboo sticks are standing now.

The next picture shows the new set-up. The problem is that our soil is clay and I don't want to break up the structure by digging a deep hole, so the bokashi is only a tantalising ten centimetres underground. What self-respecting dog could resist?
A challenge for Penny to think her way around the coiled up wire. Will she solve the puzzle?

I hope not.

I think the 2nd attempt may not be strong enough to be dog proof. I'm little bit curious that does it really work?
Great minds think alike. Not that Mommy burried hidden treasure like you... butt, she tried to set up a barrier to keep us out of an area. We totally figured out how to get past the obstacles.
Parlance thanks a lot for this post about bokashi compost. It will be very helpful to my husband. Good luck with these wires .same
Anna, so far so good. I'm going to shut the patio gate when I go out, so she can't get down to the garden, because I'm not so sure it will work. (There's almost always someone home here to take her out for a wee.)
Lassie and Benjie, the trouble is that you two and Penny are a bit too clever for us humans.
Slavenka, glad to help.
Aww, sorry Parlance.
Lucy says, "Go you good thing, Penny". Maybe they are in cahoots?
Did you know that liquid Bokashi actually removes the smell of Bokashi (not the stuff you tap off the bucket, but EM-1 made up as a liquid instead of inoculated bran.
I made a wicking garden with a layer of Bokashi in it, which was fine until it rained heavily. The liquid coming out of the overflows was a little on the unpleasant side. I just sprayed a little liquid Bokashi around and Viola! (how do you spell that?..hmmm).
PS It also gets rid of 'wet dog' aroma, smelly drains, etc.
I bought mine on-line from VRM Biologik in Australia. http://www.vrm.com.au/brochures/LiquidBokashi.pdf
Happy digging, Penny. Happy filling holes back in, Parlance (and hope the latest method halts the digging activities)

Kerri, thanks for the interesting info. I do put Bokashi powder down our kitchen sink, but a liquid would be easier, and I could use it in the ways you suggest. I'll follow the link and read about it.
