I don't know what they use exactly, but we have a company that does nothing but spray deer repellent. They come about every 3 months to respray. From what I have heard, many people swear by it........at least those with the money to spray their entire yard 4 times a year for their rest of their life!

another thing I wanted to mention....

one lady I have done work for.......a complete, insane gardener, has gone so far as having a entire field of lavender on her property........I mean a 200 by 100' field of nothing but.........just to try and keep deer away....its actually quite cool, because when there's a breeze, you can smell lavender all over the property.

Bottom line though, the best, and only real solution to deer is fencing. The only thing I've seen that is basically 100%. I can drive you through neighborhoods where all you see is miles and miles of that 8 ft tall plastic deer fencing along property lines, and off course, a cattle crossing or gate at every drive.
