Try plantskydd. I use it to protect things until the plants are tall enough
to fend for themselves somewhat. It also has a conditioning effect in that the
deer come to associate those plants with carnivore damage scents and simply
choose to go elsewhere. This is particularly useful for rutting stags as they
choose not to scrape on undesirable trees. We have other trees on our island
that look somewhat like apple-pears and are not good forage. This may be the
reason for the aversion. I have never had to use plantskydd on the fruits I
mentioned.
