Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Posted July 18, 2006 I've found, over the course of 40+ years of organic gardening, that blood meal and/or hair from the place you get your hair cut is a good deterrent for deer and rabbits. The blood smell they avoid and the blood meal gives your plants a nice shot of nitrogen that makes them grow and bloom or produce like mad...! Hair smells like the person it came from and also provides a lot of nitrogen for plants. I DO recommend composting the hair for a while tho ... or try it straight from the salon floor and see what happens! Jan Jenson Quote
