Topband: critters eating my coax!

It all started in July - I noticed something had nibbled at some of my 
coaxseal near groundlevel on my beverage feedlines. No big deal.

Yesterday, I notices that three beverage feedlines (RG-213) each had about 
100 small holes - look like little tooth marks.

My first thought is to "mark my territory" like a dog - but the feedlines 
are too long to conveniently (and regularly) pee on. Maybe some sort of 
noxious spray like bug spray???

A friend who hunts told me about fox urine  (I assume synthetic) he bought 
to mask his odor. It smelled so bad he had to throw his clothes away and he 
couldn't get rid of the odor for days!!!

The feed lines are about 500 feet long and in heavy woods. Any advice 
appreciated!
