I found deer tracks in one of my flower beds where tulips are growing, and
the leaves were munched off 5-6 plants, but not the other dozen or so. And,
no snacking noticed with tulips elsewhere on the property. Are deer known
for liking tulips, or was this just a taste? FYI, deer own this
neighborhood, and the flower beds they did NOT raid provide them with more
shelter than the one they did.

Or....maybe it was just one deer shopping, and he/she is bringing the whole
family tonight. scary horror movie music here


I recently heard of a novel way to discourage deer from eating anything! I
have no deer so have not had a reason to try it. It is a hot sauce called
'Insanity Sauce'. It is 10 times as hot as jalapenos...so the story goes.
Dilute in a spray bottle and spray on perimeter of garden area or
wherever...
It's available from Save On Foods (I'm told) and maybe other food stores. It
could be worth a try.
