Keep your landscape free of deer D eer dam age to o rn am en tal p lan ts is increasingly a problem . Deer are selective feeders that eat leaves from flowers, shrubs and ornamental trees. Damage to larger trees can extend up to seven feet. In some areas, deer damage peaks in winter when snow c o v er red u ces the food supply. M ost areas w ith overpopulated deer herds experience problems year- round. The availability of natural food sources and the taste p re fe re n ce s of individual deer make deer proofing a difficult task in many areas. Deer will eat almost any plant rather than starve, so damage control measures will be needed in addition to careful plant selection. Use of fencing and repellents can help control deer damage to landscapes. A fence is the most effective control against deer damage. An eight-foot fence is generally sufficient to deter deer, and lower fences can work if they slant away from your yard. T ree protectors or shelters also prevent deer from browsing on young trees. Made of polypropylene tubing, plastic tree wrap, or woven-wire mesh cylinders, netting can be used to protect individual or group p lan tin g s. The netting can be left on year- round if it’s attached loosely at the base to allow for plant growth. Repellents may help reduce deter deer, but they do not elim inate dam age co m p letely . H om em ade repellents include rotting eggs (mix two eggs with a gallon of water and spray the mixture on ornam entals). The eggs rot on the plants and the smell repels deer. Human hair hung in mesh bags m akes a sim ple repellent. Hang the hair bags on the outer branches of trees about a yard apart, and replace them monthly. Bars of strong-smelling soap hung in the same way will also work. This is a good way to use all those aromatic gift soaps you have in a drawer. R ep e lle n ts c o n tain in g predator urine or spray-on, soap-based mixtures usually only last a few w eeks, depending on the weather. Once deer taste your garden, it is difficult to rid them of the habit. Replacing your current mix or trees and shrubs with plants that are less appealing will help move the herd along to other sites.
