Tiffany.. Deer can be a huge problem and they seem to know what plants are posuonous and which are yummy treats.
Sometimes when moving to another area has new challenges and brings new solutions. Daylily's will attract deer. I have given up growing them . I had planted them across the front , over 50 and I think there are only a few left . There are so many gorgeous daylily's I can wait to see what you have chosen.
A few helpful hits to scare the deer off.
I have a pellet gun no pellets but the noise from the cartridge scares them off.. at times a few paint gun pops …I chase them off on the ATV and pellet gun blasting. The big tractor works too, the noise scares them off. In summer a sprinkler motion detector over prized plants always scares them off.
Also early spring is when they arrive in droves.
Plantskyyd .and another product uses coyote and fox urine…both work well.
The best defense… is 'de-fence' at least 7- 8'….high…simple square wire fencing attached to T-posts. I use hot wire around the pasture which the deer run right thru.
Good Luck
Have a great move…
