Natural Deer Control

Natural deer control is a huge subject and we will not attempt to tackle it here. Rather, we will provide you with direct links to more information and offer organic deer repellent products that we have found to be effective.

Deer Damage? First, make sure that it is deer that are damaging your landscape or garden. There are many animals out eating on plants, especially in the early morning or night, so it is important to know your enemy. For information and pictures of damage go to http://www.Deer-Departed.com/deer-damage.html

If you have prize plants that you don’t want the deer to even bite, then many of the repellents won’t work for you. Many deer repellents are based on taste and once the deer tastes the bitter or nasty plants they stop eating. That is fine if we aren’t talking about your prize roses. If nibbling matters, you probably need both a taste and odor repellent. Time of year also matters when choosing repellent.
