badly behaved badgers

[Breadcat24]

Went to my new allotment today and my sweetcorn has been attacked by badgers.
They have bitten through the stalks.
I had been warned they were partial to sweetcorn but thought I was ok as they have not even got cobs on yet.
The sweetcorn was in a netted cage.
I have replanted some they have dug up and re-netted an re-enforced the cage. I have ordered some motion sensitive lights and citronella and peppermint spray
Any ideas what I can do?
I am pro badger and sweetcorn costs not a lot but this is war!

Put rubber snakes inside?

maybe if I play that music they will go away

We have not found anything that can keep them out, they will dig under, climb over or smash through anything to get where they want to go, I do sprinkle my flower beds with chilli powder or curry powder which seems to work but just moves them to another part of the garden.

We are already putting coffee grounds on the surface to deter slugs. So I have prospect of a caffeine coked up badger running amok in a netted cage eating curried sweetcorn. I suppose I could get one of those wildlife cameras and put it on you tube

I’ve planted lovely scented flowers but all my garden smells of is curry!

Netting will do sod all against badgers. You'd need a wall.
