I’m with the commenter who suggested tennis balls. Deer are large, I don’t really like them either, but understand the whole share the earth thing.

Two words: Coyote Urine.
Course, if he has no fear of people…he’d probably look forward to kicking coyote butt.

My sister built an eight foot fence around their crops because the deer JUMPED the six foot fence.

I haven’t had one blueberry from my blueberry bushes since I planted them over 8 years ago. The same goes for the strawberries. They’re all eaten by the local wildlife and it drives me crazy!

My father in law uses an air rifle to get the rez dogs off his land. Maybe you should consider it.

I’ve had deer in my yard…

…but I don’t try to grow anything edible back there!

Oh man, when you get an electric fence and start sitting up nights waiting with your crossbow, I will HAVE TO send you some chewing tobacco.

I can’t believe they haven’t mowed down your garden if they’re getting in to the backyard. You must have some dumb deer. : )

I’ll be putting up a minimum 6′ high fence in an effort to keep the mangy beasts out of mine. *sigh* I noticed yesterday my lilies are looking a little short. Sure enough, they munched ‘em. Time to find the deer spray.

And the 2 year old commented this weekend “I don’t like deer – they poop too much.” Not sure where he picked that up, but I could not agree more!
