Bar soap does NOT work. We tried Irish Spring. They either ate the soap
or it disintegrated. In any case they ate the azaleas where the soap was
hanging.

We only have a few, and although I have plans to build a fence this year
around the back yard, I may build a temporary portable fence just to drop
around the few tomato plants.

Has anyone tried any of the other deer preventatives? I've read that you
can tie bar soap...but I've never tried that.
