Storey Books just published *Deerproofing Your Yard & Garden* by
Rhonda Massingham Hart which may be of help in deciding what tack to
take. Hart's research into the habits of deer found that the secret
to deer control is that there is no secret. Deer are creatures of
habit and you have to constantly change strategies to throw them off.
They will become accustomed to anything, but will be freaked by very
small changes. She also says that the overpopulation problems have
created a situation where deer are absolutely starving and when
starving they will eat anything. The book covers everything from
fencing to commercial repellents to plants that deer disdain.
The book is available at bookstores or by visiting www.storey.com or
