    Default Bumper Crop of Tomato's and .............................Deer

    With the hot days and warm nights, I am having a bumper year with tomato. Got my first ripe one a few weeks ago. Had two or three more that were a day or two away from picking.
    Then, BAM came out one morning and they were gone.
    Still have a ton of green ones.
    Then today I found a large green tomato in the middle of my yard.
    Went over to the plants and there was a large deer print in the dirt.
    Putting up a game camera tonight.

    I live in the country and the woods behind me goes for miles and it is a deer super hiway.
    Any remedies that work on replant?
    Besides a fence.

    deodorant soap in a stocking hung around the garden sometimes works for a while - as will deer "repellant" - a motion sensitive light or sprinkler might work for a bit - go get a big bag of hair from a barber shop and lay it around in the garden - 24 hour human scent.

    Irish spring soap.
    My mind is the weapon, everything else is merely an accessory.

    sounds like you'll just have to get a tube of tomato paste and squirt a little out on a stump

    coyote pee from gander mountain?

    Never tried it but it makes sense that it would keep deer away.

    edit: http://www.predatorpee.com/ lol


    Deer eating your shrubs & garden?
    Coyote Pee is for you

    your own urine working would be dependent on what the majority of your diet is ..... and even then may actually work more like an attractant .... put out a cam and make a scrape with your own urine - you'll be suprised
