Concentrated Deer Repellent - Bobbex | Deer, Elk, and Moose Deterrent Concentrate (64 oz.) UB-U9NT-KE8U

Extremely stinky but it certainly keeps the deer away. The smell does fade away after a while. I use it daily during the growing season for my flowers. So far, the best way to keep the critters from munching on my plants

Finally a product to let the deer know I don’t plant to feed them. First planting of my plumbagos and bougainvillea the deer destroyed them. Now they don’t touch them. Great product.

Works great when I spread this out I see no signs of deer or rabbit and my vegetable garden has not been touched by any animals

I was so skeptical about this product, especially since they say it won't wash off, giving one the idea you only need to spray once, or once every month or two. However, we've had to spray once every week-- not because the spray washed off, but because the deer started eating the new growth and new blooms that hadn't been sprayed. This stuff stinks. Really bad. Do not stand downwind while spraying-- you don't want this on your clothes or person. In fact, don't stand downwind from it (or anywhere close for that matter) for about 12-24 hours after spraying. But for all the stink, it works! We have some encore azaleas that a few years ago stopped blooming. Or so we thought. We also thought deer didn't like azaleas. Wrong. At first they only ate the blooms, so we'd see buds, but then no blooms. Seventeen encore azaleas just stopped blooming-- although the 20 non-encore azaleas continued to bloom outrageously. Finally the buggers began eating the leaves too, and then we realized what we were dealing with-- hungry deer. We have sprayed our encore azaleas 3 times in the past 3 weeks. I had forgotten the color of the blooms of some of our azaleas because it had been so long since we'd seen them! The 3 newest plants, purchased 2 years ago and almost eaten to death, are finally being allowed to gain new growth as the deer are leaving them alone. We'd pretty much written them off as deer food. Bobbex doesn't say their product will work with rabbits, but I've got some eating my newly planted petunias and we decided to spray them today just to see if it helps. I'll report back if it does. Fingers crossed. [EDIT: Bobbex DID work on the petunias! The rabbits hate it!]

Seems to work. Had a deer coming in the yard at night eating all the leaves off the fruit trees. Sprayed this nasty stuff on the trees, the deer still comes in the yard and ate a few leaves, but hasn't touched the trees in weeks. Still see the deer, but trees have been left alone.

If you’ve ever looked out at your garden—once a proud, civilized patch of earth—and seen it reduced to something resembling a salad bar for marauding deer, you’ll understand the depth of my rage. Enter Bobbex Deer Repellent Concentrate, a product that doesn’t so much solve the problem as utterly humiliate it. Let’s be clear: this stuff smells like it was brewed in the very bowels of Satan after a particularly bad meal from Taco Bell. It is, without exaggeration, one of the most offensively pungent substances ever to grace a spray bottle. You will question your life choices. Your neighbors may question yours too. Small woodland creatures will file complaints. And yet… it works. Spectacularly. The deer, those smug, velvet-antlered hooligans, take one whiff and promptly decide that perhaps starvation is preferable. Elk? Gone. Moose? Probably halfway back to Canada by now. Frankly, I suspect it would also keep away zombies, werewolves, and possibly that one relative who never leaves after dinner. Application is simple enough, though I strongly recommend not doing it upwind unless you fancy tasting despair. Once it’s on, however, your plants are effectively wrapped in an invisible force field of olfactory doom. So yes, it reeks. It’s appalling. It’s borderline chemical warfare. And it is absolutely brilliant.

Update June 2016 - Product became ineffective after using for a few years. Dear got use to it and would find what I sprayed and eat it. Most recently was 6/26 and they ate the lilies the same night i sprayed them with almost double the concentrate/ I even ensured they where coated to try and save them. Obviously nothing is fool proof so have to find a new spray without the same stink to throw off the deer... Old review below It is also probably the smelliest product I have used, really it stinks but not like that. It is also not to be sprayed when the windows are wide open on a sunny day taking in the lovely weather, according to the family that is :-) I have fought a losing battle for years now with my Day Lilies, White Lilies and Star Lilies losing each year. But this year we enjoyed almost all of the Lilies. I say almost all since in a heavy Dear area, which I have, they will sample a few plants before realizing it is yucky and move on. The Hydrangeas and Azaleas all got to bloom much more this year than any other also. And the Hostas where not the usual salad buffet like years past. They are correct in that you need to spray regularly in the growing season for fast growing plants and every 10-14 days, based on rain for, the others. But they are also correct in that it does not wash off easily, due to the Fish Oil, and it does provide superior protection when compared to all the other products I have used. Those products include everything Lowes and Home Depot sell, plus a few blood products from Amazon. I also tried the systemic pepper tablets, but they seem to work indifferently and if I did not spray then the plants got eaten - seems the deer like a little spice in their food but not this smelly stuff. So if you have a strong stomach this could be the product for you..

We have a deer problem right here in suburbia. They will eat ANYTHING! I'm trying to grow different varieties of spinach, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and winter squash. This is a salad bar for deer in our area. How do I know? I put Ring cameras around my garden set to detect motion. In the morning I would check for motion. sure enough, there he was, munching away on my tomatoes. I started spraying with this product and haven't seen a deer in range of my cameras since. We live in NE Florida where it rains a lot in the summer. I assume the needs to be reapplied after a heavy rain, so around dusk I give the garden areas a quick shot of Bobbex. I keep a 1-quart spray bottle mixed with the concentrated Bobbex (I like that it is a concentrate so goes a long way). Small chore to get some food for my family instead of the deer. I checked around the Internet, and the Bobbex product was frequently recommended. So far, it is working great and I would recommend buying it. Oh, one other thing... The directions are under the front label. You have to look at the upper left-hand corner to see the tab to open it.
