Which trees do squirrels and rabbits eat most? Only delicate and thin leafed trees?

Well, I’ve finally found out what is eating my JMs... Rats.

I’ve noticed my neighbor has been putting up a cage-trap on the brick-wall the past couple weeks.
I’ve never asked him about it until yesterday, when he hired the neighborhood gardener to trim his big palm tree.

I asked him what he’s been catching.. and he said he’s caught 6 rats so far and continues to catch them.

Unfortunately, the stpd dmbfck gardener is an incompetent retard and far from a professional arborist.
3 or 4 of those giant palm leaves fell onto my property. 1 of them fell directly on top of my Red Dragon sapling, leaving a 5” scar and gash on the trunk (it was already planted at a 45deg angle tho).
The other 2-3 palm leaves fell on top of and around that nandina (which I don’t really care for... but that’s besides the point).

It doesn’t look too bad, but I’m thinking the fallen palm-leaf must’ve hit it hard for it to leave a gash/scrape like that, and might’ve pried and ripped the roots from the soil a little. I hope it’s okay. It’s very depressing and disappointing.

It’s as if the retard gardener did it on purpose or has zero courtesy or morals. How hard is it to control a simple fkn palm leaf!? Real professional arborists can control big heavy cut-off trunk sections!... palm leaves should be a breeze! Zero palm-leaves/branches are suppose to fall on the neighbors property!!

I can't speak to Californicator laws, but usually any parts of the tree overhanging your property are trim-able by you. Normal courtesy also usually applies where you ask him to trim anything endangering/irritating your property and he removes the risk to suit his tastes. Sometimes this means uglyfying his tree and is resisted by him, whereupon you punch him in the nose and he burns your house down and you both go to prison. Other times you complain and he says you can uglyfy his tree at your expense and you shoot him down in the street and go jail for life. There is often a wide range of options including one of you moving to Las Vegas or North Dakota where there aren't any trees to speak of. I hope this has been helpful...
