How to protect seeds while their young?

  1. Hello, im going to be putting in a few more "Carrot" seeds, i put 2 in the other day and the rats dug them up and eat them, and i acutally tried growing sunflowers legit, and animals keep eating them 25 seeds wasted, I need something that can protect them like a grow box, But not a grow box just something that will protect them untill they get a bit bigger any suggestions thanks? 
     

     
  2. What's your location? As in back yard, inside your main garden, in the woods, ect. If it was in your main garden, then fencing in the garden itself would help with a lot of pest problems. Just make sure to bury the fencing deep enough to discourage going under and high enough to keep out bigger nuisances. 
     
  3. To keep animals from digging I just lay fencing on top of the ground. The plants grow through the fencing but animals can't get them.

    Another thing I use is old tires. I put a tire around the tree/plant/seed like a moat and it allows the plant to grow but animals can't dig.

    Use this for all my trees now
