on 9/9/2009 We've had no luck with taste- and scent-based repellents like these, but we have a LOT of deer in southwest Virginia. We use a homemade deterrent that works through sound and motion. No need to reapply, cheap and easy to build, and 100% effective so far. Check out our step by step instructions at www.backyarddeer.com.

on 4/6/2009 This is a great recipe that works by the odor method. I've had a lot of trouble with deer and have made a blog about it here: http://homemadedeerrepellent.blogspot.com/

on 3/12/2009 Alternatively, if your in Southern England, look up www.DeerControl.org.uk. These guys offer a totally free deer control service, done safely and efficiently by shooting. It cost me nothing and I got a whole load of venison for my freezer - happy days all round :)

on 6/30/2006 This is a great deer repellent:
The zest of six large oranges, two tablespoons of Tabasco sauce, two tablespoons of corn oil, one teaspoon of cod liver oil, one cup of milk (any kind), and a gallon of water.
Mix together and spread in the desired area(s).
