Stay Away, Deer!

Imagine spending long days in your garden with the hopes of creating an astounding landscape only to find that it’s being demolished by your friendly deer friends. The war against the deer eating your plants is one that has been fought for ages, and because you cannot simply just tell them to be gone (they likely don’t understand English), you may have to plan a better strategy.
