Don’t let animals make a meal of your garden

Which of these animals call your garden “home”?

While they may be welcome to pass through on their way to someone else’s garden, they quickly wear out their welcome when they make a meal of your favorite perennials.

If you’re wondering which type of Plantskydd animal repellent will be most effective for the pests in your garden, remember this simple tip: Use the product that gets as close to the animals’ nose as possible. Since this is a scent-based deterrent, you need to make sure they smell it.

Sprinkle and spray to keep the critters at bay

That means you’ll want to sprinkle the granular formula on the ground for short animals and on short plants. Spray the liquid formula up on the stems, leaves and branches of plants browsed by taller animals. If you remember that simple tip, you’ll always know the right form of Plantskydd to apply.
