Do deer munch out on herbs?

North Tonawanda, NY(Zone 3a)

I'm planning an herb bed and so is my DS, but both of our yards get visited by all sorts of wildlife, including deer. I don't really want to use a repellant, just need to know if I need to put up fencing to protect my garden.

We'll be growing a wide variety of cooking and medicinal herbs. (Hopefully none that deer consider to be "bonbons", LOL)

Granbury, TX(Zone 7b)

Deer consider most gardens bonbons..

I would put up a fence ... and that will probably not be a sure deterrent.. check with your county home extention service for recommendations for your area for the type of deer you have.

Thanks, Barbi. I was rather afraid that would be the case. Having seen them up close and personal, I know they are white tails (with that HUNGRY look in their big "Bambi" eyes, LOL).
