If anyone is still reading this group, the hops worked for one night.

Perhaps you received no response to the idea of hops as a deer
repellent because nobody has tried it... or they thought it
was a joke.

We installed an electric fence today. This better work !!!!

A fence will work. It doesn't have to be electric. My
garden is
surrounded by a conventional wire fence. Bambi visits
every night
but does not bother the garden.

Suggestion: Anyone erecting a deer-exclusion fence should
tie strips
of white fabric to the fence wire. This helps the deer see
the fence.
