Pesky squirrels (i think) have eaten all the sweetcorn off my plants... so disappointed. Any tips to keep my sweetcorn safe? Confused

Cut the bottom of a 1L drink bottle and use it as a corn shield.
That's what we all do on the allotment!

We've had crows dive bombing it and then eating the cobs that have fallen off. Thanks for the tip Spotted.
