Liquid fence, it works, minus heavy rains and re-applying, from what I have seen here, they just hate it. I've got a bumper crop of apricots this year and whats on the ground will draw them in. I had one large doe come trotting right over in the afternoon 2 days ago, got a whiff of that stuff, up goes the tail and she circled around the entire miniature orchard. I sprayed it heavily on the ground, surrounding tree branches and on anything that will put it into the wind, like the post bloom peonies nearby. I also sprayed it heavily on the tree trunks. Nothing on the fruit. It works for sweet corn very well. It's $40 for a jug of concentrate that makes 3 or 4, 1.5 gallon batches in the hand sprayer. They will devour everything around here, and even when I had the large patch of sweet corn the last few years, one jug did all of that for the season and some incidentals around the place. That was a tall order, with rain and such, you have to respray depending and they did get a little corn, but I'd have nothing if I did not use it. You can use it in the winter to keep em off shrubs too. It does reek of rotten eggs and whatever else is in it. I find that just spraying leaves and surrounding areas works, so I don't apply it to the fruit or vegetable, nor does any over spray seem to be an issue. its a quick and effective solution that eliminates fencing, which I have bought to enclose my larger patch, but never had time to put up. My neighbor across the lane has some hostas in front of the house, deer take it to the nub every year. Seeing I cut the grass there, I sprayed all of those, they are just blooming now, never saw that before. It reeks at the initial spray time, but the next day I can't detect it, deer still can, though. It leaves a visible residue on darker greener leaves you can see but can't seem to smell. Supposed to last through a rain or two, but I re apply it after most rains. They have memory of it too, but will return and browse at some point.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
