Protecting Lilies from Deer: Fencing, Netting, and Repellent Options

Deer Love Lily Blooms

Deer readily eat flower heads, leaving only stalks. For a 10×10 ft bed, install a fence at least 8 ft tall or cover with sturdy mesh netting.

Repellents and Deterrents

Spray‑on repellents (putrescent egg solids, capsaicin) require frequent reapplication after rain. Electronic deterrents (available at DC Jincks’ site) protect larger areas. Compare costs and effort before choosing.
