Deer control for your Garden

For years my father has lived in the country area city. He likes to grow flowers and food. Some of the food he grows is corn, tomatoes, carrots and other produce for his own consumption. One of his biggest issues has been keeping critters out of the garden. The biggest one is the deer. What? The small hoof prints with the ability to reach over the four-foot fence to pull up and damage the garden produce. The deer damage was two fold, one the fencing around the garden has to be repaired every other day, two the lose of produce that you have spent money, blood, sweat and tears getting the food developed to eat. Lets also mention the destruction of flower plants and grass destruction.

Then on March I went to the annual Home and Garden show, at the HG show there was a product that you could sprinkle around your garden. This mixture works like mothballs that repel moths, the grain mixture was a deer repellent supposed to keep the deer intruders away from your garden. It works for a while until he could harvest the produce. Then when produce gone the deer damage went away. But as the planting season comes back around the deer comes back. Now there are electronic deer repellent for your garden along with DeerOff repellent from the folks of Havahart. They have available many different quantities sizes of their DeerOff products and a couple of electronic repllants that I am interested in trying one of those. It getting cooler Deers beware.
