The message
from Wayne contains these words:

i have tried everything! now, i am ready to put up an electric fence
to keep them out. any advice would be greatly appreciated. how high
does an electric fence need to be? 4 feet? 6 feet? 8 feet? and
how far apart do the strands of wire need to be? 6"? 12"?

Depends what sort of deer they are; the kinds we have in Scotland can
clear jump anything up to 7ft. That's why electric fences are not the
answer (animals need to touch the wire and the ground together to feel a
mild deterrent shock; leapers in mid-air do neither).
