In Nashoba Valley, our landscapes change dramatically with the seasons. Spring brings fresh green leaves, summer offers lush shade, autumn glows with vibrant foliage, and winter brings a quiet stillness. But no matter the season, one problem persists for property owners: deer browsing.
While deer may ignore your trees during the height of summer if other plants are abundant, the risk never truly goes away. In fall and winter, when food sources dwindle, their diet shifts to include bark, buds, and evergreen foliage — and that’s when trees can sustain serious, even irreversible, damage.
That’s why homeowners and property managers in Acton, Bolton, Harvard, Hudson, and Stow trust ohDEER’s natural deer repellent for trees — a safe, eco-friendly, and effective way to protect valuable trees year-round without harming wildlife or the environment.
When temperatures drop, deer become far less selective in their diets. In spring and summer, they prefer tender plants, flowers, and vegetables. But as the landscape turns bare, they begin browsing on:
This seasonal shift means your carefully planted privacy screens, decorative trees, and saplings are at risk.

Annual Tree Protection Plan:
Can deer really kill a tree?
Yes. Ongoing bark stripping or repeated bud grazing can weaken a tree, stunt its growth, and in severe cases, kill it entirely. Young and ornamental trees are the most vulnerable.
Do you spray in winter?
Absolutely. Winter is a peak time for deer damage, so our formula is designed for cold-weather use. It won’t freeze, and it won’t harm dormant plants.
How often are applications needed?
Typically every 4–6 weeks. Timing may vary based on the type of tree, local deer activity, and weather conditions like heavy rain or snow.
Is it safe for pets and children?
Yes. Once dry, our treatments are completely safe for people, pets, and other animals. There’s no harmful residue left behind.
Will it harm pollinators?
Not at all. Our deer repellent for trees only targets browsing mammals and is harmless to bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects.
