Follow me on:

Deer and ticks seem to thrive together during summer and both can become a nuisance to forest and woodlot owners. Deer will also make a quick meal of your valuable trees and shrubs. Landscape Guide David Beaulieu gives some valuable tips on plants you can easily plant and grow that are "deer-proof". David also gives some good advice on how to avoid Lyme disease and the tick that causes it.

Deer, Ticks, Lyme disease.
Control on a 13 acre, bordered by Cedars, Pines and Hardwood deer living areas, is difficult.
Use ordinary Moth balls around Recreational areas, around barns, and Mowed areas. Also, simple Sulpher for ticks works very well.
A barrier around the property of sulpher does not affect trees, in facts aids growth, keeps deer at bay, till deep water rains.
Moth balls around living areas keeps ticks off, snakes off and deer also.
