Default Deer - what's the ultimate answer?

Do you actually know that a sprinkler will deter deer. I keep thinking of
deer on a rainy day, do they stop eating? Now if you could sprinkle dog
pee, or lion urine...that might work!

firestorm of insults and counter insults about hunting.

There is no real definitve answer, but here's my stab at the subject.

Human hair (go to a beauty/barber shop)has shown to be a somewhat
effective odor deterrent, as well as moth balls, and cigarette butts.

There's also a motion detecting sprinkler available that will turn
itself on if the deer move around it.
