EPIC REPELLENTS Deer Scram All Natural Granular Repellent - All-Natural, Animal, People and Pet Safe Granule Repellents (2.5 lb Shaker)

If you apply frequently and after heavy rainstorms this does work. It is work to remember and apply often but if you do it, the deer will leave your plants alone. Been using for years and the only time I have deer eat the plants I use this on, is when I have forgotten to apply in a timely fashion.

I still have a few hostas that are getting eaten, but I have seen the deer walking through the yard on my security camera, and they aren’t going to the garden so I have to assume that this product is helping to keep them out!

We moved to a new area last year and have fought the deer and rabbits ever since. I sprayed other (expensive) products around liberally last year to deter them with no success. We had to re-plant the majority of our front flower beds (several hundred dollars of plants) - rabbits chewed most of the lower half of two new Degroot's Spires I planted (which should eventually grow back), and three 3-yr conifers to the nub (which won't ever grow back). What eats conifer needles?? Most of my hostas never had the chance to fully leaf out; combined with several perennials, I apparently planted a very tasty salad bar.After seeing that investment being returned as scat in my flower beds, I decided to be more aggressive this year. I read on a university's horticulture school's website that a combo of Deer Scram and Deer Stopper was the only solution with which they had found success. So I doubled down and diligently scatter this once a month, and spray Deer Stopper on all of the foliage. The deer don't even stop by, and the rabbits that stop must figure out there are easier targets next door. I have a full bed of hostas back, and I think the perennials will recover! Yay! Lots of impressed neighbors have commented, which makes me happy because they've seen me smelly, sweaty, and butt-up in the front yard re-landscaping everything. I need to redeem myself somehow after that.This has a very small amount of scent - it's not great, but there's not enough scent to be offensive by any stretch, and all scent is gone (to humans) after a few minutes. I don't gag or dry heave or even squish my nose, I just notice it (and I've stuck my nose in that container and inhaled to make sure that was the smell). Great product!

I was surprised when I got this, expecting granular to mean small pieces. I got the order through USPS, which might have been the problem, but the repellent was almost dust like. I did spread it on my artificial turf to keep the deer off and it seems to be working, but would be much easier to apply if the product was larger in size. We did get snow, which has melted and the repellent seems to be doing it's job.

For three years we had problems with deer eating our plants in the front yard. I put this in that area and, a month later, nothing has been munched.I have ordered another bag.

As you can see from the pic, deer not deterred at all. First, I noticed (before even opening the package) that this package of scram was different than others I had purchased in the past. It was not loose granules, as previous purchases. But more compacted together and a very dark brown color, almost like damp soil. Tried it anyway, thinking they must have changed the formula.Emptied most of the bag of scram in front of a small 4 ft area of fence that the deer jump over. Saw a deer in my backyard a few days later and it jumped back over the same area. Been back repeatedly since!!! Not much of a deterrent. Very expensive for such a small amount of coverage too! Total waste of money. This SCRAM IS A SCAM!

This is second time I ordered this product because it works great to repel deer, rabbits and squirrels in my vegetable garden and flower pots.

Seems to work much better than deer repellant sprays. Only time will tell how effective this product is at repelling the ever increasing deer population in my area. It's a bit more expensive but worth it as I have spent money on plants only to have them destroyed by deer.
