Do deer like jewelry?

Question

I would like to bribe the deer in my yard to stop eating my plants. I think this particular deer is a real fancy pants.

Answer 1

I live in Indiana and, like many of the people up here, our deer seem to be partial to piercings and tattoos.  The main difference between the deer here in Indiana and those in Kentucky is our deer still have all of their teeth.

Answer 2

why yes they do  . . . what you need to offer up is a pie tin or two, tie them on a string and hang them so they are able to spin and reflect, the shiny effect should spook them. You might also try using some wind chimes . . . the metal ones, not the wooden ones. If nothing else just post your address, and i will help you eliminate your problem. LOL!  

Answer 3

make it a nice bit of jewelery of high velocity lead.

Answer 4

Well, I know it works the other way. I gave my wife a pair or earrings that were made from deer antlers. I guess it would be hard to pick out jewelry for a doe, because it's hard to tell if they have pierced ears. I suppose you could always give them something in about 150 grains of lead....

Answer 5

Deer love jewelry. Especially little dangly earrings and heart pendants. I had this exact problem and I tried to bribe the deer with jewelry and they stopped eating my plants too. Try a .45 too.  

Answer 6

Give the deer an apple!*

Answer 7

The deer munching my garden didn't go for the jewelry bribe, they just came back hoping for more. So, one day I surprised them with grated Irish Spring soap I scattered about the garden. They didn't like that so much and moved on.
