Protecting People, Pets, & Plants

Bob’s Guide to Keeping Your Favorite Plants

Hey there, fellow adventurers! It’s your pal Bob the deer, joined by my buzzing buddy, Rob the mosquito. We’re back with another American Deer Proofing newsletter! The other day, I was strolling along the trail at Long Pond in Hopkinton, RI. For those who don’t know, Long Pond isn’t just famous for its cameo in Wes Anderson’s “Moonrise Kingdom”; it’s also known for its stunning display of wild rhododendrons. These colorful beauties come in green, pink, purple, and white during the spring and line the paths with their lovely hues.

Rhododendrons are a treat that many deer love all year round because they remain green even in the cold winter months. But these aren’t the only plants we find delicious! My fellow deer and I also have a taste for daisies, hydrangea bushes, tomato plants, sunflowers, tulips, and hostas. And it’s not just us deer—my rabbit friends enjoy munching on many of these same plants, along with petunias, marigolds, pansies, and crocuses!

But here’s where American Deer Proofing’s services save the day. With their effective deer and rabbit repellents, it’s easy for me to distinguish which plants I should avoid. Their tick and mosquito repellents also help keep my buzzing friends away from you all summer long! Their services cover Rhode Island, southern Massachusetts, and southeast Connecticut, providing effective protection that keeps us animals on the right path.

So thanks to American Deer Proofing, I’m a lot happier knowing which plants to leave alone and which ones are fair game. My fellow deer and rabbit friends agree: it’s much better than noise repellents or barriers that just make life more difficult. Plus, we appreciate that their services are eco-friendly, so even if we do happen to nibble on your plants by accident, we’re safe and sound.
