Re: Deer Repellant
Mark,
I have been gone for the week-end. Your suggestion sounds interesting. If
I planted the Marigolds now, how long would it take them to get to a size
and odor to fend off the deer?

P. S. I worked one summer in Hopewell, Virginia. Is that anywhere near
where you live?

wreak havoc on gardens. I have tryed scarecrows, human hair, perfume, etc.
Nothing worked until a man told me to plant marigolds around my garden. I
was amazed at how well it works! If you plant them about 10 feet apart or
less around your patch a deer won't bother it. They hate the smell. I didn't
believe it until I tryed it but it is a sure fire cure.
