I've done this in the past and it did work for a while around the vegie garden. After a few years the older does figured it out. -
A friend of mine who grew conventional crops said he made a perimeter with poles, then ran two single threads of monofilament fishing line, one at 3 feet, one at 8 inches. His rational was that the deer can not see the line, but will feel it either with their nose or foot. This confuses them and being cautious, they will not cross the line where they can feel something but can not see it. He was very confident that this worked and did it every year. -
Attempts are being made here in some quarters to completely wipe out the deer. It is feasible to do so in some areas but not in others. Around where I live it's just not possible.
How do you outdoor growers cope with these. Here one of these things will eat a mature plant to the ground in one sitting. I am not a fan of these. -
I live in Atlanta, we have a whole herd of these landscape trimmers running around out neighborhood. Sometimes as many as a dozen in my front yard. One of my neighbors took one down last year with a crossbow (which is legal to do). They have trampled the lawn with their tiny hoofs to the point that it will not require aeration this year. They only have two natural enemies, coyotes and automobiles.. -
