RE: Protecting young fruit trees from deer

in Homesteading6 days ago

Makes sense protecting them like that! I didn’t realize they eat the leaves and buds but it makes sense. Those little shits. We have a neighbor starting an apple tree and I was curious what they were protecting it from - deer makes sense!

Sort:  

Seems its mostly the young trees they feed on. I have some older ones on the property and have not seen them eat the leaves.. But I should set up trail cams to check that honestly.

Yeah they will eat them for sure.. I had a buck rubbing its antlers against one of my fruit trees damaging its bark.. had to put up a wire cage around that one too.
