Plantskydd Deer Repellant is a Proven, Effective Protection for Garden Plants and Shrubs from Deer, Elk, Moose, Opossum, and Rabbit. Plantskydd Deer Repellant is considered the most cost-effective and environmentally safe animal repellant available. Plantskydd is accepted and used by leading forest companies, nurseries, private woodlot owners, landscapers, and home gardeners, as well as State/Provincial and National Conservation agencies.

Plantskydd Deer Repellant was initially developed in Sweden in 1991 in response to commercial forest plantations being decimated by plant eating mammals. The forest industry needed an animal repellant that could last through severe weather and meet Sweden's strict environmental laws. Plantskydd's long-term effectiveness is attributable to the tenacity of its 100% natural, vegetable oil binder in sticking to plants, even under severe snow/rainfall conditions: up to 6 months over winter, 3-4 months in summer. The Swedish name for the product "Plantskydd" translates as "Plant Protection".

Plantskydd Deer Repellant works by emitting an odor that animals associate with predator activity, repelling the animal before it nibbles on plants. Research has proven that odor-based repellants are more effective than other repellant systems where the animal needs to taste treated plants before being repelled. Once animals are attracted to an area and begin feeding, it is more difficult to discourage them from returning. Plantskydd stimulates a fear-based response which will have deer, elk, moose, opossum, and rabbits looking to dine somewhere other than your garden or plantation.

Plantskydd Deer Repellant is the browse deterrent of choice for leading North American forest companies who use it to successfully prevent plantation damage by deer, rabbits, elk and moose to millions of conifer and hardwood trees, including: cedar, spruce, fir, pine, alder, birch, larch and poplar species. Many customers have provided positive anecdotal feedback as to the effectiveness of Plantskydd in protecting plants against other herbivores (plant eating mammals).

Plantskydd Deer Repellant is made in the USA, is a 100% natural, environmentally friendly product, is 'Listed' by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI), and is member tested and recommended by the National Home Gardening Club.

Nurseries and landscapers find Plantskydd Deer Repellant to be equally effective in protecting flowers, shrubs, and ornamentals.

Which repellants actually work?

" ...Studies investigating trends in efficacy of deer repellants indicate that, of the 20 products tested, repellants with active ingredients that emitted sulfurous odors i.e.: bloodmeal or egg solids, generally provided the best results..."

"...Products that contained active ingredients which cause pain/irritation (capsaicin, allyl isothiocyanate), or illness (thiram) were less effective..."

"...Products that use a bitter taste (denatonium benzoate) were usually the least effective in reducing damage by herbivores. Repellants that were applied to plant surfaces were generally more effective than capsules or other devices that produced an odor intended to protect a specific area."

*View Industry Field Trial Results or User Testimonials.

Q: How often do I need to treat my plants and trees?
A: Treat plants before browse begins (spring or fall). Frequency of application is dependent upon the growth rate of the plant. Always treat new growth until the plant has reached full size or leaf-out. Plantskydd lasts up to 6 months over-winter on dormant plants and up to 4 months during the active growing season. Ideally, Plantskydd is applied in the morning or late afternoon when the sun is not as strong.

Q: Can I use Plantskydd on my veggie patch?
A: ORGANIC - Plantskydd Soluble Powder Concentrate has been Listed (trw-9589) by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) as suitable for use in the production of organic foods and fiber. Plantskydd consists of 100% natural ingredients. Plantskydd's active repelling ingredient, dried blood (porcine), also acts as a high in nitrogen fertilizer. Do not apply directly onto edible parts of fruit, vegetables and other food crops; rather spray mainly inedible portion of plant. Wash any residue off fruit and vegetables before eating.

Q: Does Plantskydd work on conifer and broadleaf plants equally well?
A: Yes! See label for dilution rates and application methods.

Q: Any advice for protecting fruit trees?
A: If you’re planting out young whips of fruit trees, try coating the whip using a paint brush and a thick solution of Plantskydd (We recommend soluble powder concentrate—follow directions on label). If subject to spring or summer browse, spray trees when the leaves have formed.

Q: Anything in my landscape I should not treat with Plantskydd?
We suggest you test samples of sensitive plants before treating large numbers. If the leaves curl on test plants, rinse with a fine spray of water and dilute Plantskydd further (e.g. 1 pkg to 2-3 gallons water) prior to re-applying. Plantskydd will darken leaves temporarily—they return to their normal color in a couple of days. For aesthetic reasons, use on very fuzzy leaves like Santolina, Lamb’s Ears and Lavender is not recommended. Fortunately, these plants are usually not preferred by our furry friends.

Q: Will Plantskydd hurt my dog?
A: Some users have reported that the family dog is quite enamoured with Plantskydd when it is still wet on the plants. It will not harm animals but it’s best to leave Fido inside until the treated plants are dry.
