They will eat everthing in sight including the flowers. They are of course protected.

look up "wolf urine"
It comes in a dry powder and if you sprinkle it around your property, they will move to new property. My neighbor has surrounded his garden with it...they never go near it now... We live in rural MA...we have loads of deer... Rich |

I don't suppose there exists some sort of non-toxic chemical or powder that tastes horrible to them but won't hurt animals/humans? Gotta be something you can do.

Run over them with your truck. Typically this is not seen as hunting.

Practice first. There are a bunch of critters around here give my house a wide berth and take off running when they see me....and no longer stop to look back. |

When I was a kid I knew some guys that planted tree seedlings in the Oregon forests. They worked for the logging firms doing re-forestation. In order to ensure the deer didn't munch on the suculent adn yummy seedlings, they coated the seedlings with a fine spray of raw eggs! It seems that deer absolutely hate eggs???
I guess it makes sense. I've never heard of a deer dying from a high-cholesterol diet. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Eric |

I advise a combination of the above suggestions:
Install the scarecrow sprinklers, then when they are spooked into the street, you can have a guy waiting to run them over in a truck; at which point you can take them to the meat locker and have them processed to eat. It's a win-win-win situation. The neighbors think it was an accident, you get reimbursed for the damages to your truck from insurance, and you're feeding yourself and/or family for quite a while. You'll also get deer sticks to snack on while you're working on your 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) QUOTE Is it a coincidence that your name is Heard? Hehehe... I'd also like to know this. |

do you have any friends that are hunters?
see if you can get a deer carcass from them and hang it in the yard, show them deer what 'll happen to em! or get a deer rack and mount it on the front of your truck and start deer callin', see if you can get a buck to fight your truck. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
