I have tried everything against deer-dog, human urine, Irish Spring soap,
human hair from barber shop, 8 ft high mesh deer fence (they jumped
it!)--everything. Only thing that worked is an electric fence baited with peanut
butter. It does not have to be high--the key is getting them to lick it when it
is on, and they will not be back. And it is not expensive-it does not have to
be strong, just hold up the wires about 4 ft high. It's the only thing
that has worked for me. Farm Bureau has a number of chargers--a small one for
about $40 plus wire (about $18.00) plus insulators should do it. You need to
have signs to warn any kids (you can buy them) that the fence is electric.
That's just courtesy, and some places is code. Hopefully the deer cannot
read. Jerry in southern Indiana
