Twenty years ago we never had deer. Our plants weren't bothered by wildlife and we planted a lot of hosta and shade plants. In the last 5-8 years the deer population has exploded. We've had 16 deer in our yard at one time and 5-10 deer often. They eat everything except the vinca, to the point that I had about given up. We had tried a lot of things but nothing deterred them. A friend told me about Liquid Fence this spring and since I started using it, the deer haven't nibbled even one hosta! The first time I used it I just used the small hand-spray bottle and got some on my gloves and clothes and it smelled terrible until they were washed, but since then I have used a garden pump sprayer with a wand and have had no problem. I've also worn a paint mask, so I don't get the smell in my nostrils, and once I walk away from the just-sprayed plants and take off the mask - no smell! The odor is nasty when applying, but the mask makes it tolerable, and after it dries (next day) it is almost odorless to humans. Two days after spraying I have planted things right next to sprayed plants and smelled nothing. I have applied it three times (initially, and after heavy rains) in two months and am very satisfied so far. I like that nothing in it is damaging to the environment or highly toxic so I don't need to worry about pets and kids, or my health spraying it.
