We are in Zone 8 (SC) I believe and have a deer problem whereby they eat certain plants at night. Is this going to be a problem for me ?

I dont have an issue with deer but I would imagine they probably like jasmine.

We have been using Deer Scam for the past few years and the only time it doesn't work is when I forget to reorder it. I also have found that where I put it on grass it grows better and thicker than the grass that doesn't get any Deer Scram.

Sorry to say, I had no luck with deer off at all. Seemed to attract critters to my flower beds.

I love Deer Out and have a big Hosta garden that the deer don't touch. Just be sure to reapply it during the growing season so that the new growth is protected. I keep a spray bottle full in the house and yes it can be used during freezing temps.

We gave up on the Dichondra. We're in North Georgia backing up to a wooded gully. I think we're zone 7. The Dichondra grows very well in the spring and fall. It does OK during the winter unless the temps get extremely cold -- 8 degrees -- like they did last year. Then it browns out. The problem is that during the hot, wet, humid summer it's overrun by crabgrass and the bermuda grass. Weed & Feed will kill the Dichondra. We tried Grass B Gone. It killed the grass but only for awhile. The Dichondra browned out from the Grass B Gone. It's very pretty if you can get it to do well in a sunny spot. We couldn't keep it going and it's too much trouble to overseed all the time. Hope this helps?

I am from Florida but I've lived in Columbia, SC for the last 34 years. I had a beautiful hedge of night blooming jasmine at my home in Green Cove Springs, on the St Johns River. Last year I bought three night blooming jasmine plants but rather than put them in the ground I have them in large pots. I wasn't sure if they would survive the temperatures here in SC. I have them in a green house for the winter but plan to try at least one of them in the ground to see if it will survive the winters here. They flowered nicely in the pots, over the summer, and smelled heavenly.

You should cover at night at dusk or dark so they keep a natural schedule. Just like the wild.

Zone 9 is within the growing zone for this plant (zones 6-9) and this is the zone for Phoenix/Scottsdale. See http://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/PlantFinder/PlantFinderDetails.aspx?kempercode=q280. I'm in Texas Zone 8 and the plant is happy growing on my fence in a lot of sun. You might want to watch how much sun it will get where you plant it as you are hotter than we are here. Asking the grower is probably your safest bet. Keep in mind it's a perennial and dies back when it gets cold.

I know when I pull in my driveway at night I'm only going 10 mph and the deer just stop and look ay me. I've been using deer whistles for over twenty years and have not hit a deer We lived in New Hampshire woods for 16 years and now in Illinois in corn country 8 years and have never hit a deer yet( knock on wood) lol

Depends on your zone. Check the plants zone and your zone in udsa website. But I would assume that you wouldn't have any issue in any climate if you left it in a pot and only placed it outside during the sumner. Remember no direct sun light or at the least very little.

I did & no problems but I can't guarantee it- If I were u I would call my County Extension agent & inquire because I'm in SE TX & I have no idea about your area. Most of the grass here is St Augustine but after I lived in MO I wanted fescue so I planted it & it has done well here

I have coyotes, mountain lions, bears, and bobcats on the ranch behind my place. Never had coytoes or mountain lions come into my chickens, had a bear wander through and was more interested in my bird feeds hung around off and on for a month. Coons and foxes don't usually come up here from the valley, we're about 500 feet higher and dryer. I have had bobcats, great horned owls, skunks and once a raccoon. Since I've had the nite gards I've never had any night time predators. Usually by this time of year I have trapped 3 - 5 skunks, but have had none this year. Which is a first in 10 years.

My residence is in the forest. I have squirrels and doves. I see both on the ground. Also, a sunflower seed fill now lasts a week.

This product may have worked in the beginning but the deer have eaten most of my flowers. I don't think I will buy it again.

I started cool weather seeds this week (lettuce,spinach,peas). I'll start other plants probably next week. I watch how cold it will get overnight. If it stays above 32, I figure most seeds will be ok. By the time the little shoots have started coming up, it will be staying warmer at night. I'll bring in geraniums and pansies in the next week or two. I've been in the greenhouse the past few evenings and it is still pretty warm. I always go by Zone 4 for Colo. And I always try to pick perennials that are native to this area. You can't go wrong with any of them. They take the cold weather better. It's always trial and error with these little grow house. Good luck and thanks for asking! I started cool weather seeds this week (lettuce,spinach,peas). I'll start other plants probably next week. I watch how cold it will get overnight.

Can't help you - No chipmunks here in mid Florida. I would expect it would prevent them from raiding the sunflower supply, but if they find a way to get to it their little critter crew might make the squirrels look like dieters!

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.
