At the Cary Arboretum, a division of the New York Botanical Garden, simple method was developed. They took human hair from a nearby beauty salon and stuffed it into nylon stockings. These bags were then suspended around the woods. Voila! No deer! Of course, when I first saw them, I was repelled, too. Also, I've heard that spreading lion dung around a garden will keep out most herbavores.
