Default Milorganite organic fertilizer as deer deterent

no, it wont work. They make it here, we all use it (on lawns, NOT in the veggie
gardens!!) and it doesnt do squat.

you need a barrier!

I read on the Internet that Milorganite organic turf fertilizer has a
distinct odor that seems to deter deer. Has anyone tried it with any
success? Is it only for lawns or can it be used in the garden too?
I'll probably buy a bag to try it out. The deer have been visiting more
and more, and like to chomp on my wife's favorite garden plants.
