Google; How to Keep Rats Out of Citrus Trees.

Also. Many older people take statins, blood pressure meds, and pain medication and eating grapefruit can alter how it affects you for three days and more. (P.S. I am not into alternative medicine. )

We have opted to buy our citrus at Publix. I never thought I would pay so much for lemons in FLORIDA. lol.
