Step 9Deer Protection
The deer can jump over 4 feet of fence, so in the area of our garden where we do not have the wire, we built a 2 foot string protection to make the fence 6 feet tall.
The deer will not attempt to jump through this, nor will they be able to jump over it.
We took 2 foot 2 by 2s and drilled two holes in them to stick the string. Nail them into the existing fence uprights, send the string through, and you have deer protection.

Another option/addition is to plant a border of "deer repellent plants" such as Sage Peony, Poppy, Mock Orange and Morning Glory to name a few. Be sure to plant some inside as well to fully discourage the rascals!
