    I have grown capsicums , chilli and aubergines this year outside plus in the greenhouse.

    I'm finding that the ones outside have had something nibbling the fruits even the hot chilli peppers,
    has anyone else had this problem ?

    Ive wondered if it could be mice doing this

    While most animals will be wary of chilli as its hot slugs and worms and even some mice will have a nibble i would lay some trapsdown once i grew chilli in a basket i found some birds having a nibble
