You use a empty milk jug, 6 eggs, dawn and water. I fill the jug three quarters full of water, add a squirt of dawn and the mixed eggs slowly ( because of the foam from the eggs. Place the mixture in a garage or outside storage area. It will be stinky but chase the deer away. Use a spray bottle with a filter on the inside tube, because the eggs will clog the tube otherwise. I lived in a state park with lots of deer that were eating everything. I started using this every evening and it worked. I still use this every year. Please don't get the solution on your plant, it will burn the leaves. I spray a foot outside the edge of my gardens spray at night and by morning most of the smell has left.

I use the egg solution myself and it ...Hello Lisa !<br />I use the egg solution myself and it works fantastic ! <br />We lived in a state park in Missouri where my husband was the superintendent. We had hundreds of deer in over 250 acres and they were eating everything. I had a old farmer tell me the following recipe and I still use it and it works !<br /><br />Take a gallon milk jug, water, 6 eggs and a couple of squirts of dish soap. This solution has to sit for at least a week to ferment so it will stink and keep the deer away.<br />I fill the jug about 3/4 full of water before adding the eggs and soap. I also mix the eggs well before adding them to the jug and then slowly add the eggs to the water. I don't fill it completely to allow room for gases from the eggs.<br />Put it outside in a outbuilding or garage for use and I strain it into a spray bottle because of the egg whites. I use a spray bottle that has a strainer end on the inside tube that prevents clogs and that really helps.<br /><br />I spray this in the evening outside my garden and never on the plants. The solution will burn the leaves of plants because it happened to me.<br />I never had a problem again with the deer and now that we are retired I still use it in my garden.<br /><br />I love your newsletter and I look forward to seeing it appear in my email each month.<br />Margiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16996574868618343837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543427408513948174.post-91770928150815471172023-03-02T03:04:59.429-05:002023-03-02T03:04:59.429-05:00I've heard that Fels Naptha soap is being used...I've heard that Fels Naptha soap is being used as well, don't know about getting it here in Canada so I'll try the Irish SpringLoishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04389485449182611198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543427408513948174.post-81579982335366434202020-05-19T15:14:54.287-04:002020-05-19T15:14:54.287-04:00Oh my....I would faint if I saw an elk in my garde...Oh my....I would faint if I saw an elk in my garden.
