Along with the arrival of spring, gardeners are often concerned about the health of their plants and trees, as well as the potential attacks of deer, pesky rabbits, and other herbivores.
The following pleasant-scented Irish Spring soap, on the other hand, is the solution you’re looking for! It’s a great repellent for your garden!
The scent of this soap is highly repulsive to mammals such as rabbits and deer. Furthermore, the soap is rainproof, so it will not turn to suds after rain.
You’ve probably tried a variety of commercial repellents, but they must be applied after a heavy dew or rain and are quite expensive. This pack of 12 Irish Spring bars, on the other hand, will cost you only $13.
Here’s how to put it to use:
Cut the bars into small pieces and place them in drawstring bags or cheesecloth. Draw the strings tightly to secure the pouch, and staple the pouches to wooden stakes with a staple gun.
Then, simply drive the stakes into the ground in 5 to 10-foot increments around the perimeter of the garden, making sure to put more stakes around high-traffic areas. Furthermore, you can scatter several smaller chunks on the ground.
Inspect the leaves if you are unsure of the cause of the damage. Insects have eaten them if they are half-eaten or have serrated edges, as mammals devour the entire leaf or leave a clean cut.
If you have an insect problem, the Irish Spring soap will not help you, but it is an excellent repellent for deer and rabbits! Furthermore, it emits a pleasant aroma throughout the area!
