We live in the country and the deer just have a grand time eating my garden. We don’t have the money to fence it all in right now and I sure won’t pay a huge amount for “organic” deer repellent.
There are many different recipes for this but many are just some form of these basic ingredients. Some have hot pepper in them. I don’t recommend using hot pepper for any kind of animal repellent because it can get in their eyes and not knowing any better can rub them and in some cases this will cause them to go blind.
Here are 2 easy deer repellent recipes you can use at home that are safe and most of all cheap!
