I've never hit one, but they're the reason my gardening has come to
almost a complete halt. Don't bother with suggestions for keeping them
away. I've tried absolutely EVERYTHING.
My wife sprays "Liquid Fence Deer and Rabbit Repellent". It does work. It
smells like rotten eggs when sprayed on, but the smell dissipates within a
minute or so.
The deer have left the sprayed plants alone, and after a while, the deer
learn that there is nothing appetizing there, so they don't even come
close.


Tried it. They laughed at it and ate half the branches off a rugosa rose. Do
you have any idea how many thorns are on a well-grown rugosa? These deer are
all named Rambo.


Well, the deer were there before you were. And since humans got rid of
the natural predators, and only replaced predation in part with
automotive depopulation, it isn't surprising the population is spiking.
