Where I live we get a lot of wildlife passing through, which I would love if it wasn't for the deer laying waste to my entire garden! We've tried deer spray, which didn't do much to keep them away and made our backyard so smelly we had to stay inside with the windows closed for the rest of the day.
Finally my husband and I resorted to putting up bamboo poles with netting to keep the deer from nibbling.
Thanks to that we were actually able to take a harvest from our vegetable garden for the first time, but dealing with the netting is super inconvenient and at this point most of our yard is wrapped up, it's getting a little ridiculous!
Does anyone have any tips for discouraging the deer? Ideally something natural, we're not a big fan of chemicals, the deer spray was a last resort.
