Good suggestions. I'll give the agent a call.

You can reduce the possibility of damage but I think deer will find a way
in if they want something tasty.

Run an electric fence at the property perimeter.
Keep dogs loose in the yard.

Don't know about non-tasty plants. Consult with the county ag extension
specialist.

See what the agent thinks of Hot Pepper Wax,
http://www.hotpepperwax.com/. The mfg recommends it only for rabbits and
squirrels but http://www.mydeergarden.com/ seems to think it's okay for
deer, too. http://www.mydeergarden.com/Deterren...pepper_wax.htm has
some home brews at the bottom, too. A combination of methods will probably
be the way to go. Think Integrated Pest Management. Good luck.
