meg Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 i hope this pic posts. i'm not the best at it. anyway, we are in the middle of a HUGE renovation to our backyard. this project has been in the works since before Easter. this morning, the landscapers are at work, using LOUD, noisy machinery. all of the sudden, this doe pops out of the woods behind our house and starts sampling all the expensive plants. some were still in the pots and not even planted yet. i let frannie out and she barked and barked, and the doe just kept on her feeding frenzy. i couldn't believe it. i hope there isn't something wrong with her. usually when deer come into our yard, they are in a group. and, on a selfish note, does she get that i am paying an arm and a leg for those leaves that are supposed to be deer resistant?

lisae Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 We have lots of deer where we live. There is one doe that loves to taunt my dogs. she actually will come up to the fence and kick at the dogs. Drives my border collie even crazier than he already is!

kennan100 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 I heard or read that human hair will keep deer away. I guess you just ask your stylist or barber to save a bag for you and sprinkle it around your property and they'll stay away. Might Google that. Have no idea where I heard about it, it just stuck in my head! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iedquilts Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 Good luck- we found that fencing is the only way to keep wildlife at bay . they seem to favor my roses. Irene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseCity Quilter Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 There are so many deer around here that they are a worse pest than rats! Nothing but tall fences keeps them away. They kill plants, do major damage to livestock feed, to say nothing of damage to vehicles! If you ask me they are anything but sweet...and I am a animal lover, just not deer....
