Are there Herbs that will deter Deer from the garden?


Yes... plant a fence.


Yep, I agree completely.
Absolutely the only thing that has a chance of working.

I've tried everything else. If read the deer don't like this,
they don't like that. Well, the truth is, they may not like some
kinds of plants, but they'll eat them anyway.

Last year I put up a 6 foot high fence:

I have high hopes for this working.


6 ft is not high enough, they can clear that flat footed.
