Thread Name: BS: Defeating Deer in the Garden
Subject: RE: BS: Defeating Deer in the Garden
My grandfather Earl McConnell lived on his gold claim next to Yellowstone Park, and everything from elk to bear to antelope, big horn sheep, deer, etc. would have raided his garden.
I shared his solution with Bobert back when he was discussing the deer/garden dilemma.
My grandpa went to the dump and got old bed springs and stood them on end, side to side, all around his garden. A very high fence is the only 100% solution.
