I'm not kidding, first of all. This worked.
This spring deer were eating my walnut and butternut seedlings at a great rate. A retired game warden suggested I spray the seedlings with blood. Let's see: 10,000 trees at 60c each, for two weeks of effective deterrence? Don't think so.
But the blood idea caused me to bring home the fish heads and entrails after a day on the lake. I dumped them around the worst-affected trees, noticed some success, and kept the dumping up for the rest of the summer. No more deer damage.
Seems coyotes love fish heads, and they came regularly for the handouts. Everybody knows coyotes are urine-producing machines and deer hate the smell. The deer left.
One coyote, Emily, the worst-looking, broken-tailed, mangy critter you could imagine, has remained among my trees, living well on mice and apples from the orchard.
