    Oregano is really tough, there’s a patch of it which has been regenerating each spring for many years now, at least 15 IIRC.
    That’s a pity, an idea is to intersperse the cover with something slightly unpalatable, the nightshades for example. The younger leaves on a local species (probably this) growing under the pines here are actually quite gentle on the feet, prickles are felt more on the onset of maturity in drier times. If they keep walking on it, try a sweet-smelling deterrent like Houttuynia or Lesser Swine Cress.
    Which of the wildlife causes the most problems? Over here the black wallabies are usually fine except in colder and drier times when they tend to destroy bark on shrubs and young trees.
