And pillage most foul and heinous it is!

They tore down the fencing I had guarding it. The 8mm Mauser is beginning to sound like a viable solution come fall.

    Did you try bigger cats?

    But for me the easiest anti deer solution was an automatic night light at daytime they stayed away and the sudden light scared them away

      We have a couple of bigger cats in the area. They are called cougars, and NOT the kind you find in a bar…We even got wolves. Heck, I found a wolf kill about a half mile from my house this winter again.

      The automatic solar light trick did work for a while. But they do learn, and now they just ignore it. About the surest way to get them to be less of a problem is to thin them out by eating them.

      I did put my fence back up, but I’m going to need to think of something stronger.
