I will try the Bitrex stuff. He may or may not understand the Berenstein Bears book, since he only turned two a few weeks ago. Worth a try, though! Thanks :-)

Haha, I would've never thought of that! So how, exactly does one do this? just peel off a leaf and rub it on?
Thanks for the advice! I'll have to make a trip to the drugstore tomorrow...
