Deer an pepper plants

[Rich Kaminski]

Deer eat jalapenos and hot peppers in Texas, New Mexico and Mexico that I know of and probably anywhere else that they grow.

The dang rabbits are eating my hot pepper plants.They must go good with the beans! Gonna be eating them little scutters this fall!

The guys I hunt with in Canada plant hostas to attract deer to their blinds in early season

Oh yeah. Hostas are like candy to deer.

Yep I once heard deer love habanero but will pass by all the jalapeños to get them.

That is where they get the "fire pellets" they drop from helicopters!!!?

Lol. Pre-season deer need more beer!

The deer totaled my garden this year except for tomatoes and a few peppers.

Yes. Rabbits love them too, especially when they're young plants. They will eat them down to the ground. I had to take care of a couple rabbits awhile back. Now I've got what can only be a deer coming around. Something is nibbling the top of my mater plants and cucumbers about waste/chest high. That's a first in about 10 years. The deer usually stay far away from my place.
