Deer Feeding – Mistake?
Q: I have several deer in my garden every morning. They seem so hungry and have even started chewing on my cabbages. Is it a mistake to feed them?
A: Feeding them will DEFINITELY attract more deer! Deer somehow communicate to each other about the presence of food. If you give them corn or hay, they will eat that PLUS your landscape plants.
