The message
from Sacha contains these words:

Hugh F-W said the same on 'River Cottage Forever' and Pippa Greenwood said
it deters deer as well on Gardener's World but one of them (Pippa I
think),
added that it had to be male hair. I think they both stuffed it in old
socks/tights and/or tights and tied it to their fences.

And it has to be renewed after heavy rain. A friend of mine in Haslemere,
Surrey used to go round barber's shops........... ;-)

My (now retired) barber used to dig the hair clippings into his garden,
and grew prize vegetables on the diet.
