This Pantry Item May Be The Key To Deterring Deer From Your Garden
By MARCO ROSSI
Deer possess a keen sense of smell, which they use to identify food and potential dangers. To deter them from your garden, consider utilizing a staple from your pantry: cloves.
All you need to do is generously sprinkle whole cloves around plants that deer favor. The spice will mask the aroma of the plants, prompting deer to steer clear of the area.
Please note that cloves can be toxic to cats and dogs. If you have pets that frequently roam your garden, you might want to consider another method of repelling deer.
