Whatcould be doing this?

[u/SMKuhltosh]

I know there are no rats or raccoons here, so what could be eating my tomatoes while they are still on the plant? Crows? Rabbits? Muskrats? Skunks? Porcupines? Squirrels? Are there woodchucks in Edmonton urban neighborhoods? Anybody know or have advice on how to stop it?

Travis.

Edit: I tried to write rabbits but autocorrect thinks it's Travis.

Fuck you, Travis.

Damn it Travis! Lol

[u/coffeecup456 → u/Vaguswarrior]

Its always Travis 🙄

[u/darkstar107 → u/Vaguswarrior]

Classic Travis

[u/lemasei → u/Vaguswarrior]

Travis, you little scamp!

[u/flexflair → u/Vaguswarrior]

if you worked with him you would totally not be surprised at this behaviour.

Tonight it's raining on the angels of the city

Did anyone prophesize these people?

Only Travis!

Come in, Travis

[u/RidiculousPapaya]

Sorry, I was a little hungry and your tomatoes looked nice and juicy 🤷‍♂️

[u/darkstar107 → u/RidiculousPapaya]

I found Travis!

[u/National_Frame2917]

Rabbits would be my guess. But idk.

[u/AccurateNoH2o-626]

Squirrels will also go after ripe tomatoes for the seeds

[u/Lucite01]

if i had to guess probably skunks, i had a couple of pepper plants that I'm pretty sure fell pray to skunks

[u/SquidGodSunday → u/Lucite01]

Would that mean they now produce...pepper spray? (I'm so sorry.)

Take my upvote and get out….

You may need to install a security camera to see what it is

[u/Capital_Bluebird_951]

Mice got mine until I got the mice…

[u/Glittering-Fault4493]

Voles love my tomatoes, but this could be squirrels or rabbits too!

[u/Edm_swami]

Could be the richardson ground squirrels. They get into everything and are all over the city.

[u/BeautifuTragedy]

We have a task force to deal with rats when they are spotted.That doesn't mean that they aren't here. Alberta does have rats, as rats don't understand human borders

[u/FadedMomentum]

Am I the only one who read cows first?

[u/Waste_Ad_6774]

If it's tomatoes then it's a tomato eating horned slug. They are green and disgusting and have sharp teeth.

[u/p-p-p-pawn]

a mouse

[u/wafflebilly3]

Birds like ripe tomatoes....

[u/Fluffy-Judgment-6348]

Anything from magpies to mice.

Certainly porqupines and squirrels are good guesses too.

[u/fluorescent-purple]

Usually it's slugs for me. Whenever I start to see this happening, I will harvest my tomatoes slightly underripe.

[u/Stixxx24]

Probably not rabbits. Too many toxins for them.
I read they will eat very ripe tomatoes in hot weather for water but that’s not the case here.
Just saying.

[u/acemorris85]

Caught a squirrel not 20 mins ago going at it with my tomatoes

[u/Annabis9807]

Squirrels, rabbits or mice.

[u/munkymu]

Probably squirrels or mice/voles. Hares don't really go after tomatoes (they tend to prefer herbs and greenery, as well as bird seed and fallen apples) and we don't have wild rabbits in Edmonton.

[u/Long_Rush_7523]

Lots of skunks around this year.

I'd guess a pair of partially eaten Roma tomatos Hoss

I don't think he's gotten out of our yard, but my 2 year old has been doing this to mine.....
