(out of lurkdom)
does anyone here think that human urine is a deterrent to deer?
we have a lot of deer around here, and i would like to start planting
some flowering bushes, but not for their breakfast!


As one of my professors in college used to say, "Try and find out, then
report back to us."

Otherwise just use blood meal.

i thought folks were saying that BLOOD MEAL didn't work?


Everything works for a while, and then it doesn't. Blood meal will lose
potency after a while. And, isn't it a source of nitrogen, too? Not all
plants appreciate that, at least not on a constant basis. So, if the blood
meal loses its scent and you have to keep reapplying it, you may be
bothering your plants.
