When something disappears, some people say that “this thing has been eaten by a moth”. so if we let a goat come into a garden, much of your harvest will disappear as well. ;-)

And the verb “burn” can be understood figuratively. It will burn with energy while destroying your garden. :-)

hahaha … Katiya that’s quite intelligent answer; although different from what I had in my mind …. ok, without making you further on wait, let me disclose my mind ;).... you know bees go to the garden to gather syrup to make honey, and by this process bee construct comb made of wax, and through wax we make candle and candle attracts moths … and poor moths spare their lives only due to bees going into the garden. Laughing
