II Garden Animal Repellent - Safe & Effective, All Natural Food Grade Ingredients; Repels Deer Elk, and Moose; Easy to Use, 32 fl. oz. Liquid Concentrate

This stuff works and it actually smells good. I had been using another product that truly stank (at least on application), this has a cinnamon odor which is not offensive. You do have to reapply after heavy rainstorms. I have a 'herd' of deer (up to 8 at a time) that visit my yard every night. They will eat practically anything - even 'deer-proof' plants. This stuff keeps them off.

Seems to be working well on all of the gardens I use it on. Less offensive smell than some of the other brands. More minty, less garlicky garbage smell to it. Only gripe is not being able to see the measurements of how much I’m using from the bottle. Much better price than other brands as well.

It says you might be able to get buy using it once per month. I use it everyday or every other day, or the deer start munching a bit!

If you have a consistent deer problem, you likely have tried several products or methods of deterring deer from treating your shrubs and flower beds as their own personal salad bar. First off, I want to say I believe that a starving deer will eat just about any green it can. I have a few junipers that are painful just to touch, and I can only imagine trying to chew on one or ingest it. However, during a very harsh winter, I have seen the deer chomp away at these plants which they normally avoid. In that situation, nothing short of preventing them access to your property will work. I have found success with several deer repellant products. I think the important thing is not always the product itself but timing. Here's what I mean. If the local stores sell you Product A, that means all your neighbors are buying that same repellent. So, for a short while it might be effective, but eventually the deer have to eat, and they become used to the odor, etc. So if you keep using the same product year after year, or even if its new to you, but has been sold by your local stores for some time, you may have mixed results. So what I typically do is I go to my local hardware store and see what they sell, and I check with my Home Depot to see what they stock. Then I go to Amazon.com and buy something different, naturally something with good reviews! Anyway, back to Deer Solution. The product comes in a jug containing 32 ounces of concentrated formula. It is advertised as covering 10,000 square feet. By following the mixing instructions (1 part solution, 9 parts water) you will make about 2 ½ gallons of the repellent. I find I use about 80 ounces of spray (8 ounces of solution, 72 ounces of water) for one full application on my property. That's to spray about 60 small ground cover plants/flowers, about a dozen perennial flowers, and 40 large shrubs. I respray if we have more than one heavy rain, or once I see new growth/buds. Lacking rain, I spray about every 3 weeks. I have found Deer Solution to be effective. It may be no more effective than other similar products, as the basis for most of these is egg solids in various stages of rotting. But what is nice about Deer solution is it has a heavy cinnamon scent. So when you spray it, you will actually notice the scent of cinnamon on larger shrubs near your doorways, etc. It has no nasty odor! Like most repellent, Deer Solution is not cheap. If you want to experiment, you make actually make your own repellent at home. Fill a gallon jug with a raw, beaten egg and water. Initially the egg need not be rotten, but keep refilling the jug after you spay, adding an egg when you refill. The egg will rot and it will smell pretty bad, but it will typically deter deer. You will need to respray frequently if it rains, but the cost is low so you still may spend less than a pre-made product. I am not suggesting you do this instead of buying Deer Solution, just making an observation about what one can do at home with simple ingredients. If you want something effective but very pleasant smelling, go with Deer Solution.

Wow the lady at the nursery told me about this over a year ago. I have been using over a year now and to my surprise it works! Every 30 days I am outside spraying my garden. I have lots of flowers these year. My neighbors are asking me what I do to keep deer away. I tell them about Deer Stopper II. I highly recommend and every 30 days. Goes a long way. Water resistant after hour. Easy to use and I buy larger one to mix. I cover 3 acres not all flowers but a lot of gardens and deer.very durable and I find it a great value as it saves my larger investment my gardens.

I used Deer Fence before with good results. I tried this product. JUNK!!! DO NOT ORDER THIS! Won't work. It smells better than the other stuff, But this is no good. I sprayed on with no rain and deer ate a lot overnight, did not repel or deter deer eating plants at all. Can't emphasize enough this doesn't work. 0 stars. Won't order again. My return window closed so I got screwed. Trying to save you that aggravation

Definitely helps keep the deer from eating your plants, you just need to stay on top of spraying them weekly.

Deer are still eating my trees! Spray them every month….
