Plantskydd Deer & Rabbit Repellent is considered the most cost-effective and
environmentally safe animal repellent available. Plantskydd is accepted
and used by leading forest companies, agriculture, nurseries, private woodlot owners,
landscapers, and home gardeners, as well as State/Provincial and National
Conservation agencies.
Plantskydd Deer & Rabbit Repellent is made in the USA from 100% natural, environment-friendly ingredients. Plantskydd Deer Repellent (Soluble Powder Concentrate) is 'Listed' (trw-9589) by OMRI-the Organic Materials Review Institute- as "suitable for use in the production of organic food and fibre "- as is Plantskydd Rabbit & Small Critter Repellent (trw-731). Plantskydd is member tested and recommended by the National Home Gardening Club.
Plantskydd Deer & Rabbit Repellent was initially developed in Sweden in 1991
in response to commercial forest plantations being decimated by plant eating
mammals. The forest industry needed an animal repellent that could last
through severe weather and meet Sweden's strict environmental laws. Plantskydd's
long-term effectiveness is attributable to the tenacity of its 100% natural,
vegetable oil binder in sticking to plants, even under severe snow/rainfall
conditions: up to 6 months over winter, 3-4 months in summer. The Swedish
name for the product "Plantskydd" translates as "Plant Protection".
Plantskydd Deer & Rabbit Repellent works by emitting an odor that animals associate
with predator activity, repelling the animal before it nibbles on plants.
Research has proven that odor-based repellents are more effective than
other repellent systems where the animal needs to taste treated plants
before being repelled. Once animals are attracted to an area and begin
feeding, it is more difficult to discourage them from returning. Plantskydd
stimulates a fear-based response which will have deer, elk, moose, opossum,
and rabbits looking to dine somewhere other than your garden or plantation.
