Deer Deterrent

I read on the Daylily Robin that some gardeners recommended Milorganite as a deer deterrent. (I’ve live in my present home for about 12 years and never had a problem with deer until this winter. I hate to put up a fence if the deer leave once we get over our present drought.) I found Milorganite at Lowes, and so I spread some in the daylily bed yesterday. The smell is not the greatest, but if it helps to keep deer away from my daylilies, I won’t complain. I also bought some deer repellent scent disks to set in the garden. (I forget the name. But since there is a money back guarantee, well I will give them a try. I’ve not set those out yet, as I want to try one thing at a time.) I did apply Bobbex last month which seems to have worked for the most part, except for some plants which were nibbled down . .. strange unless I forgot to spray those. I will update as I see what “works.”
Meanwhile, I wait for the mesquite to bud. The saying is that winter is not over until the mesquite buds, and so I wait.
