Here in New England the only damage to AG's I have seen so far is to the
fruit. But with the growing population of the deer herd, I am seeing there
taste for the garden to be growing as well. They seem to be eating every
thing now and they will jump a six foot fence like it's not even there. The
best thing would be not to even let them find out if they like Ag plant's.
Deer live by there noses and hanging soap bars in old nylons around the
garden has worked very well for me. Irish spring has a strong odor, keep it
freshened up by scraping the bar every couple of days best of luck.
