Deer Solution® - Repellent Service

Have you noticed browning needles on your spruce trees and assumed it was deer damage? It might actually be something else: Rhizosphaera needle cast. Rhizosphaera needle cast is a fungal disease that affects spruce trees, causing needles to turn brown or purple and eventually fall off. This disease typically starts on the lower branches and works its way up, giving the tree a thin, bare appearance over time. It’s often mistaken for deer damage, especially since both can lead to sparse or “balding” branches on your trees. However, unlike deer damage, which involves physical browsing on the needles and branches, Rhizosphaera needle cast is a disease spread by fungal spores. It thrives in moist, humid conditions, especially during spring and summer, and can be challenging to control once it takes hold. If you’re noticing bare patches on your spruce trees, it’s important to correctly identify the cause. Treatment for Rhizosphaera involves fungicides and management practices like pruning to improve airflow, whereas deer damage requires deterrents or barriers. At Deer Solution, we’re here to help you protect your landscape from deer damage, but if you suspect Rhizosphaera needle cast, consider consulting your landscaper or an arborist to tackle this specific issue. #deersolution #deerrepellent #deerrepellant #deerdamage #deerdamagecontrol #deercontrol #pestcontrol #garden #allnaturalpestcontrol #rhizophaera #needlecast

The truth is, landscaping is expensive, and when deer move in, it can leave you feeling frustrated—and potentially out several hundred, if not thousands, of dollars.

At Deer Solution, we believe your landscape should be enjoyed by you—not by the deer. Our year-round, natural repellent service is designed to help protect your plants, preserve your investment, and give you peace of mind. Don’t let deer undo your hard work. Let us help you keep your landscape beautiful and protected, season after season. #deersolution #deerrepellent #deerrepellant #deerdamage #deerdamagecontrol #deercontrol #pestcontrol #garden #allnaturalpestcontrol

So many people struggle with deer damage to their evergreens. In addition to being costly to replace, evergreens that have been devastated by deer damage no longer provide their intended privacy for you and your home. That's why we encourage customers to continue treatment throughout the winter months.🌲 #deersolution #deerrepellent #deerrepellant #deercontrol #pestcontrol #deerdamagecontrol #allnaturalpestcontrol #deerdamage #marlboronj #marlborotwpnj #centralnj #testimonial #marlboro

Did you know that Deer Solution services properties year-round, even in the winter? ❄️ Many people assume deer aren't a problem in the colder months, but winter is actually when deer can cause some of the most damage to your landscape. With natural food sources scarce, deer will browse on almost anything they can find—including your prized shrubs and trees! During winter, they often turn to evergreens, ornamental bushes, and even the buds of spring-blooming plants. That’s why Deer Solution continues to service your landscape throughout the winter season. Our year-round program ensures that even in the toughest months, the hungry deer are being deterred from eating your plants. By keeping a consistent application schedule, we can help stop deer from forming habits around your property, giving your landscape a stronger start come spring. #deersolution #deerrepellent #deerrepellant #deerdamage #deerdamagecontrol #deercontrol #pestcontrol #garden #allnaturalpestcontrol

Looking for a beautiful, hardy plant that can stand up to deer? Meet the Portuguese Laurel! 🌿 Portuguese Laurel (Prunus lusitanica) is an ideal choice for homeowners seeking a lush, evergreen hedge that deer tend to avoid. With its dense foliage, attractive deep green leaves, and fragrant white flowers, this shrub brings both beauty and privacy to your landscape. And the best part? Deer aren’t particularly fond of it, making it a natural choice for areas prone to deer visits. While no plant is entirely deer-proof, Portuguese Laurel is considered deer-resistant because of its tough, leathery leaves and slightly bitter taste, which deer typically pass over in favor of tastier options. Planting this resilient shrub can be a great step toward protecting your landscape naturally! #deersolution #deerrepellent #deerrepellant #deerdamage #deerdamagecontrol #deercontrol #pestcontrol #garden #allnaturalpestcontrol #deerresistant #portugueselaurel

Every property is different, and the answer to this question will depend greatly on your property and the deer pressure you are currently experiencing. Once applications begin, the deer may continue to take nibbles of your plants, trying to decide if the taste of the repellent is something they are willing to endure. Overall, our goal is to build a habit where the deer will over time recognize that your property does not taste like a proverbial cheeseburger and will opt for an alternative better tasting landscape. #deersolution #deerrepellent #deerrepellant #deerdamage #deerdamagecontrol #deercontrol #pestcontrol #garden #allnaturalpestcontrol

Winter deer damage to evergreens can have lasting effects. It can stunt growth, deform shapes, reduce foliage density, weaken resistance to diseases and environmental stress, and hinder reproduction. This damage may increase maintenance requirements and diminish aesthetic value. To mitigate these effects, consider deer deterrents and proper tree care. Prevention is often more effective than trying to reverse long-term damage. #deersolution #deerrepellent #deerrepellant #deerdamage #deerdamagecontrol #deercontrol #pestcontrol #garden #allnaturalpestcontrol #evergreens
