Will deer eat this stuff?

I have deer all over the place at my house and so far I haven't seen anything bother my green carpet. It grows really fast once you establish it. I just threw all my seeds on the place that I wanted it to start and at first I thought I had done the wrong thing, but a few weeks later, I started getting all manner of little sprouts. I sowed in March and now by December of this year, I have almost a three foot area that is covered with just those 500 seeds. Very step hardy also.

I will not plant this until Spring. Ah deer...... Try cheep perfume. They have very powerful noses. Otherwise they seem to eat about anything or they simply pull the plants out. There is a ground cover called Corsica moss that reeks when disturbed. They may not bother that.

Never tried it, but I just re-applied to my fruit trees' new growth. This morning I found some of the leaves and new shoots with the dried liquid on it nibbled!! Darn, the deer here no longer mind it.

If this is the tall netting, depending on the crop you can use posts, or laying the netting over the crop will deter deer!

Don`t buy it!I bought a bunch of it and every plant that I put it by,the deer eat the plant to almost nothing.

NO! At best you may wound a deer enough that the wound becomes infected and the deer eventually dies. This is still just a small caliber pellet gun. About the largest animal it can kill cleanly is a woodchuck,

It's pretty strong. I don't think deer would chew through it. But it is a plastic material -- substantial, but not metal. Much more substantial than my other bird netting, however.

I personally wouldn't want to be up in my treestand worrying about a deer shooting at me with this bow..So for the love of God I hope it wasn't engineered for deer to to be able to hunt with it..Besides, deer are foragers, they eat nuts and crops.. I've never seen a buck hunt anything but a doe and shooting her with a bow was the last thing on his mind..

Don't know yet. I just planted some vegies where there has been deer activity every knight. It will take a while before I can respond.

No. A bit like asking if a bag of e. coli would be a good deer attractant. Do an Internet search on "legume seed inoculants".

Nothing is deer resistant to any degree short of fending in your plants and garden. lf a deer wants it, they eat it. traYou could get a pet wolf or a large dog to defend the area. Rat traps may piss them off so they go away. If that doesn't work, then a rifle, vegetables, potatoes and some seasoning, and you could make some nice venison stew.

I am not sure, but our bird feeder is full of birds. They love it. Also in the evening the deer also come to eat.

I would say it won't hold up. It's great to discourage the deer from chewing on the bark and protect from sun scald. I would use chicken wire for antlers.

I don't know for sure. I only bought it for mice. I'm sure if they ingested enough it might work. But I'm not sure if they would eat it.

I'm not sure--I put venison through it regularly and there's no problem but venison has more cartilage. I fear that it might tear up fish. Just my thoughts.

I have 2 units in the yard and after a year I have not seen any deer in the yard. They seem to make a beeline around it. No other critters either. But birds stay around. Give it months to be effective. The animals need to be "trained" to stay away.

I think there is a powder to put on plants that will keep deer away. We put up small fences around our trees and sprinkles them with red pepper or chili powder.

Of course, that depends on how many deer you feed and how much you give them. I feed about 8-10 deer, that come around my house daily. (Mostly only during the winter, when their natural food is scarce.) I try to limit it to a couple cups each. It lasts about a week. But be warned, they'll start standing outside your door, waiting for you. BTW, try Walmart, it's about $11 for 50 lbs.
