I would be curious to find out if it works for them since I know it did NOT work for us! Several years ago we planted tulips and watched the buds come up and get eaten by deer. Over the next three years we tried every remedy known to mankind including the Irish Spring deal. We now grow Daffodils since the deer do not like them! On a different topic, I recently found a chain of restaurants in NYC called Manhattan Chili Company. I enjoyed the food there (Drunken Peanut Chicken had a sauce made with Chipotles and Tequila) and tasted some of their hot sauces (they had both green and red El Yucateco). Anyone else try them out? Do they have more than the two locations around Times Square?

They have a small wooden fence up around the garden to keep out the small furries (stop it Rael), but this year they also put up taller posts with yellow rope to try to keep the deer from leaning over the wooden fence and munching away. Normal enough, I suppose... The odd thing was the Irish Spring bars, enclosed in sections of nylon hose, hanging off the rope in five or eight places. The neighbor's wife said that she had heard twice last week, (from two different people, no less!) that it works to repel deer. Has anyone ever heard of this?!?!?!? Can I take a nice Irish Spring bath, then roll around in the garden to produce the same effect, or will the only effect be my needing another bath. ;-))) Not that I care, really, since I have a fence that seems to work well... -- Erich C-H # 2099 & First Lieutenant of the Moderate Corps :._______________ CONFIDENTIALITY : This e-mail and any attachments are confidential and may be privileged.
