Is it Too Late To Save My Plants?

Persistent deer browsing (as shown in the example images section of this website) will eventually kill your shrubbery and perennials.  In almost all cases however if you commence a deer spraying program, even after significant damage has occurred your plants will recover 100%.

Can Spray Programs Damage My Plants

They will absolutely not burn or harm plantings or animals in anyway.  If you observe browning, burning or leaf curling it is the direct effect of animal browsing, drought, winter or stress damage.  Chewed upon leaves and twigs will always discolor as does a bitten apple.  It is a fact that Deerproofing.com repellent sprays will prevent winter burn and drought stress by acting as a seal over the leaf surfaces.  Our weathershield product will extend the life of the sprays you add it to as well as provide antidessicant value, Guaranteed!

How to Care for Damaged Plants

Nothing will save a severely diseased or dying plant, however deer damaged plantings will almost always recover when properly cared for.

How to care for Deer Damaged Plants

1. Commence a repellent spray program to prevent further wind and/or deer damage

2. Cut back all of the burned or chewed vegetation to healthy wood.

3. Stimulate new growth with a 14/14/14, 9 month fertilizer

4. Mulch roots, particularly with 2" of compost mulch. This will prevent freeze damage and will help regulate the roots temperature. Keep mulches 4" away from main stem.

5. Water occasionally (never more then every 3 - 5 days for established plantings and never less then 1 - 3 days for new plantings) 5 gallons for trees, 2 gallons for shrubs.
