Woodstream Critter Ridder Deer & Rabbit Repellent

This formula uses a dual-action approach that targets both scent and taste. Ingredients like putrescent egg, spicy peppers, and garlic create an environment that is offensive to deer, rabbits, and squirrels, effectively training them to avoid the treated area.

Yes, it is designed for outdoor use in gardens and lawns. However, you should avoid spraying the repellent directly onto edible plant parts that you intend to harvest and eat.

One application provides protection for up to 90 days. Because the formula is weather-resistant, it holds up well against the elements, though you may want to reapply sooner if you experience exceptionally heavy rainfall.

The repellent relies on garlic and other pungent ingredients, so you may notice a scent immediately after application. This odor typically dissipates for humans once the product dries, while remaining detectable and deterrent to the animals you are trying to keep away.

No special equipment is required. Since it is a concentrate, you simply mix it with water according to the instructions and apply it using a standard garden sprayer.
