That's a good idea Brendan.

I usually do not try to advise on issues that I know nothing about. However this is an exception.

Build a mesh fence around your Ob. The rabbits will burrow out under the fence at night. They will try to re-enter in the morning or when alerted. All you need then is to block the holes while the rabbits are on the wrong side.

Make a one way door perhaps. They will soon learn how to get out. Make it very difficult to get back in.

This method works for many other animals. No one gets squeegy, no rabbits are harmed.
As Brendan suggested, though. To stop burrowing under the fence bury some mesh half a metre wide on the flat and a few cms under.

The fence will need to be 900mm high. That's a standard mesh width.

Keep us informed Peter

Cheers
