Keeping Deer and Critters Out of the Garden

You grew it. Now everything else wants to eat it.

The quick answer

A physical barrier is the only thing that reliably stops deer and rabbits. Repellents and scare tactics help but need rotating.

The quick answer

If deer and rabbits are a real problem, a physical barrier is the only thing that truly works. Repellents and noise/motion deterrents help around the edges, but animals get used to them, so rotate what you use.

What tends to help

  • A tall fence for deer; a low, tight fence for rabbits
  • Rotating scent repellents rather than relying on one
  • Not leaving fallen fruit and easy snacks lying around
