Sometimes they get smart to it. Hair, scarecrows etc.
This. Little bastards will learn to ignore anything. Eventually they'll come around like it isn't even there. My bros family operates an animal boarding kennel. They have probably a dozen different dogs in and out of there a week. Not to mention a grooming facility for show dogs and people who like to give their dogs a day of haircut and manicure/spoil treatment.
Hair goes in the trash out back along with animal waste. There's also a huge fenced in yard area for the dogs to go chill outside and get some fresh air a few times a day/poop. The buildings themselves are at the end of a 30 acre field.
My bro reaches his bag limit every season without fail by sitting in his backyard around 5am - daybreak on a lawnchair and popping em with a rifle.
We're talking it's an everyday thing til his freezer's full.
I didn't lose any plants last year and used repel all. This year wasn't the case at all. Lost 16 our of 22 autos in one patch to the bastards. 4 more were trampled. The last 2 I got so pissed off I just abandoned em. Kicked the fence down (that they jumped) and walked out of there after dumping my newly filled 2liter bottle of rank vodka piss on the ground.
I'll return in July for laughs and maybe pull some viable smoke if they made it.
Caught em on trailcams at another patch. So far they're unmolested. As cruel as it sounds (I don't really care so bring on the hate) I tied treble hooks to the stalks up in my colas.
One thing I've considered doing is attaching one of those motion detecting halloween door things up in the middle of each patch. My theory behind it is if someone gets close enough to spot it or set it off they're gonna be up in the middle of my stuff anyways. But a deer strolling through the bush and all the sudden there's Mr Skeleton Head laughing at em with led light up eyes is probably gonna be spooked and haul ass. And when one runs the rest usually follow suit.
This subject usually rustles my jimmies.
Totaled 2 cars in 11 months due to the little bastards.
I've hit 6 total in my life (a raised up pathfinder will mow right over one no probs)
Had to pull a full grown dead buck out of swimming pool as well when it fell in and couldn't get back out.
I have a special hatred for these creatures.
I even stealth arrow/fireball em in Elder Scrolls games

Lol. They're just trying to live, too. I like the idea of the Halloween motion activated skeleton. Sitting here thinking about it, that's probably an awesome idea.

piss around the perimeter of the garden (seriously)
Try to do so on an elivated surface their is a reason cats do it cause the smell travels better.

Also if you got a long hair dog once they start to shed collect it and spread it around the perimeter.
