Deer-Resistant Plant Installation
Choosing deer-resistant species is an effective way to protect your garden from deer damage. Consider these tips to create a deer-resistant landscape:
- Choose the right plants: Opt for plants that are known to be deer-resistant, such as those with thorny stems, strong fragrances, or tough textures. Great options are: boxwoods, holly shrubs, and junipers.
- Create a barrier: Fencing or netting can physically keep deer away from your garden. This may be a good option if you live in an area with high deer populations.
- Mix up your plants: Incorporate a mix of deer-resistant plants and other species to create a diverse and less attractive landscape for deer.
Deer Treatments
If deer have already caused damage to your garden, treatments may be necessary to protect your plants. Here are some options to consider:
- Deer repellents: Available in the form of sprays, granules, or electronic devices, these create unpleasant smells, tastes, or sounds that keep deer away from your garden.
- Motion-activated devices: Sprinklers or sound machines activated by motion can startle deer and prevent them from causing further damage.
- Professional treatments: Organic or commercial sprays applied by professionals can help protect your garden from deer damage.
