Deer are Eating My Landscape HELP!
Discouraging deer can become quite a challenge. You have plants that
are already planted in your landscape the deer can’t seem to ignore, well now its time to take action! Here are a few pointers we recommend: - There are several sprays that deer find distasteful; we recommend an all organic spray by Imustgarden Company. It has a clove, cinnamon spicy scent, and
is not offensive like most sulfur scented sprays.
- Hang
soap, I know some folks who swear by Irish Spring soap to keep the deer away!
- Chilly pepper powder, human or dog hair also seem to keep them away.
- Deer also dislike herbs like Lavender and Rosemary. Plant these near other plants to keep them away,
and don’t forget to snap of bits to spruce up your cooking!
- If all
else fails it maybe time to put up a deer fence to protect your investment.
The
best way to prevent deer form eating your shrubs is to plant shrubs the deer do not prefer! Below is a list of shrubs the deer
are less likely to choose to dine on:
