What's bio-fencing?
The three layers of protection.
Bio-fencing involves planting a three-tiered arrangement of thorny and citrus species, such as sisal, lemon grass and lemon.
The second layer of lemon grass emits volatile oils that repel elephants by irritating their olfactory sensors.
In the third layer, the thorny branches and pungent citrus smell of lemon plants create a strong psychological and physical deterrent.
Under the plan, these different layers of plant species will be planted to keep elephants away from populated areas.
Tailpiece.
Got up at 5, switched on the hymns on the home theatre, lit up the puja room lamp, opened up the house for the day.
A bright sunny day. Walked on the road in front of The Quarterdeck.
A quiet day otherwise.
