Our large squirrel population seems to take care of them. I've also heard you can eat them after some preparation to remove the bitterness, although I'll admit I've never tried this. I would recommend composting them maybe after smashing them with a hammer to speed up the process and discourage sprouting. You could also just put them in whole and screen them out if they have not decomposed when you harvest. Good luck!Michelle https://www.blogger.com/profile/03806770073814563148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567973235731943181.post-44166679909830063562012-10-17T14:34:52.900-07:002012-10-17T14:34:52.900-07:00Any idea about what to do with acorns?

If I leave any of them alone, they take root and then I have to spray them which I hate to do. I heard a rumor that pigs can eat them. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
