Plantskydd Deer Repellent is considered the most cost-effective
and environmentally safe animal repellent available. Plantskydd is

woodlot owners, landscapers, and home gardeners, as well as
State/Provincial and National Conservation agencies.
Plantskydd Deer Repellent is made in the USA, and is a 100%
natural, environmentally friendly product. Plantskydd Soluble Powder
Concentrate is 'Listed' by the Organic Materials Review Institute
(OMRI - trw-9589). Plantskydd is member tested and recommended by
the National Home Gardening Club.
Plantskydd Deer Repellent was initially developed in Sweden in
1991 in response to commercial forest plantations being decimated by
plant eating mammals. The forest industry needed an animal repellent
that could last through severe weather and meet Sweden's strict
environmental laws. Plantskydd's long-term effectiveness is
attributable to the tenacity of its 100% natural, vegetable oil
binder in sticking to plants, even under severe snow/rainfall
conditions: up to 6 months over winter, 3-4 months in summer. The
Swedish name for the product "Plantskydd" translates as "Plant
Protection".
Plantskydd Deer Repellent works by emitting an odor that animals
associate with predator activity, repelling the animal before it
nibbles on plants. Research has proven that odor-based repellents
are more effective than other repellent systems where the animal
needs to taste treated plants before being repelled. Once animals
are attracted to an area and begin feeding, it is more difficult to
discourage them from returning. Plantskydd stimulates a fear-based
response which will have deer, elk, moose, opossum, and rabbits
looking to dine somewhere other than your garden or plantation.
