Scarecrows
Scarecrows are a type of farming equipment that scares away pests that will eat the players' crops. Crops that have been eaten by pests will need to be replanted. Each season has its own set of pests, therefore each season has its own scarecrow. The season must match the scarecrow, if it does not it will not scare away that seasons pests. For example, if it is fall the player must put down the fall scarecrow. Spring, Summer, nor Winter scarecrows will not deter the fall pests.
The pests will eat crops on day one of each season, so the player will want to switch to the next season's scarecrow on the last day of the current season, so they are protected first thing in the morning, when the nuisances strike.
These pests impact all of the player's farms, so the player will need to put totems up in all places if this feature is turned on. The player can turn off seasonal pests in the options.
Scarecrows protect crops within five tiles in each of the cardinal directions, for a total area of 11x11. The maximum number of crops a single scarecrow can protect is 120. When the player places a scarecrow, an outline will be shown, showing which crops would be protected by that scarecrow.
Scarecrows can be crafted at the Farmer's Table using wheat or bought from the Farming Store.
