The white tails around here are so used to people that they routinely nibble the apple tree within spitting distance of my porch. My four dogs, all golden retrievers, show no interest in the hooved rodents. But today I figured out that if I throw a tennis ball at the deer, all four dogs bark happily and chase it! The deer, thinking they are being attacked by an entire pack, vanish! [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
I provide a salt lick for the deer and count on the "inventory" reduction.
I also like to watch the deer eat my neighbor's roses.
My Lab us afraid of them. Probably thinks they are big kitties.
Get an alamac there are usually some things in there. From the 2002 Blum's Farmer's & Planters Almanac (page 86).
Deer Buster Tonic:
2 eggs, 2 cloves of garlic, 2 tbsp of tabasco sauce, 2 tbsp of cayenne pepper ans 2 cups of water. Pull all into a blender and puree. Let sit 2 days and spray it all over the plants you want to protect.
