Seems local deer have denuded [Will that word choice get this post an ‘X’ rating? Anything for readership, right?] our front yard lately. The crocus plants are reduced to nubs and the nandina appear to be less than productive.
Always armed with rational solutions, I took matters into my own hands.
It was obvious–appeal to the deer’s logic. Let them know they’re not welcome.
So far, the sign’s been up for an hour. No deer in sight.
I knew it would work.
My wife–cynic that she is–seems dubious.
If the deer do reappear, it will be time for a summit and a ‘candid exchange’ with hopes for peaceful coexistence.
More later. Stay riveted.

Lol!! Those deer can be notoriously tough to deter. I’ve seen that “Deer Scram” product used for a few gardens and it seems to work pretty well. I think it’s non toxic too (for deer and plants).

Yeah, I found the sign to be non-toxic as well, though–for some mysterious reason– the neighbors are looking at me funny and shielding their kids from me.
