If you can see deer, start planning on fencing. The deer will eat everything.
Mention deer and I start flipping through recipes. They, and the squirrels and some of the larger birds know that I guess.
Only critters I have to worry about are vine borers and spider mites. ;)

Only once in a while have we seen them, but they are around.
I actully saw a dead one right on Rte 36 last year, that’s a major communter road I was very surprised.
