FISHERSVILLE VA: (Rocktown Now) – On In the Garden with Andre Viette, Andre discusses the many challenges deer can create in the landscape. Deer frequently browse on trees, shrubs, flowers, and vegetable gardens, causing significant damage to both ornamental and edible plants. He also addresses the growing concern of deer-vehicle collisions, which can result in costly property damage and serious safety risks for drivers.

Andre explores several effective deer management strategies, including repellents, fencing, plant selection, and population control measures. When deer populations become too large, they can have far-reaching impacts, including ecological damage, agricultural losses, public health concerns, and an increase in vehicle accidents. Understanding how to manage deer pressure is essential for protecting gardens and maintaining a healthy balance between wildlife and people.
