Preventing Deer Damage in Oklahoma Vineyards

I've added a new page to the Nuyaka Creek Winery website that I think all Oklahoma grape growers should find interesting. The new page explores: The Most Popular Deer Damage Prevention Methods for your Vineyard. Here's one of my favorite parts:
The Most Popular Deer Damage Prevention Methods Include:
The Electrified Peanut Butter Fence (ya gotta love the name!)

Baited and electrified fencing can be purchased pre-made or cobbled together at home. The basic idea is that deer are attracted to bait stations around an electrified fence.

If power is an issue, you can even go solar!


There are lots more techniques in the article like using Deer Off Repellent, and Deer Stop Netting so check it out:
