Deer repellent reviews
Our place is in the woods and I know deer will hit our small garden later on. I'm contemplating a fence or at least an electric one, but wanted to see if anyone had good or bad reviews on those repellents I've noticed at Walmart (granular or spray). Deer frequent our yard later in the summer and early fall the most. Okra, peppers, Lima beans will probably be tempting! I really don't want to make a fence if this stuff actually works but I had my doubts when saw it.
A fence is the most reliable deterrent. Even a 4 foot fence will be more reliable than the sprays. Deer are lazy in the summer. The granular deterrents aren't going to do anything, and you won't want to eat anything sprayed with the spray.
