Question
We live near Edmonton Alberta Canada. We have several beautiful producing apple trees.This winter a couple of porcupines have moved into the trees, chewing the branchs
and breaking the branchs. We would like to humanly get rid of these pests. Will sprays such as Miller抯 Hot Sauce affect
the taste of the apples, or any other suggestions?

Answer
We in the Southern US know little about porcupines so I looked on the web and found the following web link to information in Alberta. It gives several methods of management of porcupines.
