Here in the beautiful rolling hills of Northwest Connecticut, the deer population has been on the rise for more than a quarter of a century. With few if any natural predators, these stately animals thrive on plants, grasses, and leaves and have moved out of the deep woods and into farms, gardens, and neighborhoods in search of food. Around our house, they especially love to munch on our day lilies and lilacs.
Determined to protect our precious gardens, flowers, and plants, we set out on a quest more than twenty years ago to develop a humane and environmentally friendly method of keeping these deer away. For more than two straight years, we worked diligently testing various formulations and compounds, even in the rain and snow. The result of our efforts: Deer No No, an easy-to-use scented packet and the world’s most effective and long-lasting deer repellent.
