Squirrels?

[buddy]

I'm having a terrible problem with something (squirrels I think) eating at my tomatoes. The worst part about it is that they wait until they are nearly ready to pick before eating at them - plus they don't just target a single tomato - they seem to like a variety and eat small sections out of multiple tomatoes. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to keep them away? I live in the suburbs so shooting them is not an option Thanks
